Editor’s Corner

In this day and age, it seems it’sharder and harder to find peoplethat are the genuine article.

But, if you look hard enough,you’ll find those people who saywhat they mean and mean what they say.

At last week’s Founder’s Day celebration at StarrCommonwealth, I had the opportunity to meet basket-ball announcing legend Dick Vitale.

Vitale was the guest speaker at Founder’s Day, andbesides his passion for basketball, Vitale, in recentyears, has made a name for himself looking out forkids and raising millions of dollars for pediatric cancerresearch.

During his broadcasts, Vitale comes across as largerthan life with his boisterous comments and uniquelingo, but after spending only a few minutes with theman, you quickly realize that Vitale is the same off micas he is on mic.

The man is pure passion and after listening to him,pure compassion, as he shared his stories of his parentsand the influence they had on making him the man heis today.

Just listen to him talk about his mother as he wellsup with tears, it was hard not to shed a few myself as Iimmediately thought of my mother and all that she didfor me.

The man spoke for 40 minutes pacing the podium,sharing story after story about his life and the kids whohe has helped, all the while with the enthusiasm we’veseen on TV.

I, like most of the audience (I hope) was enthralledby Vitale, and I don’t think anyone would have mindedone bit if had gone on another 40 minutes.

Vitale is like your favorite uncle that you can neverget enough of; you being like a little kid, hanging onevery word.

Yes, I am and have always been a Dick Vitale fan.In watching videos online about Vitale, I’ve seen the

comments where people have voiced their annoyanceabout Vitale’s “loudness.” A few of my friends haveeven told me how they can’t stand to listen to him andturn the sound down or change the channel when hecomes on.

Hearing that reminded me of a 1983 article writtenby Frank Deford about Howard Cosell and Cosell’spenchant for being larger than life and also irritatingjust as many people as he enthralled.

The article ended:First and foremost, Howard Cosell is sports. There

are all these people, these fans, who claim that whenCosell does a game on television, they turn off thesound...Oh sure, you probably know critics in yourneighborhood who vow the same thing. Well, too badfor them. Don’t they understand? Cosell isn’t televi-sion. He’s not audio. Howard Cosell is sports in ourtime. Feel sorry for the people who turn off the sound.The poor bastards missed the game.

Until next week, may the good news be yours.

The 25th Annual Marshall Area Chamber of Commerce Dream Dollar Drawing willtake place on Oct. 22 with several cash prizes including the $15,000 grand prize win-ner. We asked six of the 500 ticket holders what they would do with the money if theywon the grand prize.

Letters cont. to next page

Cody Hoehne,Marshall

“First, that would help me pay myway partially through college. After that,I would probably invest some.”

Shawn Patton,Marshall Twp.

“Three of us at the shop (Shawn’s Short-stop Barber Shop) bought a ticket together.If I won, I’d probably stick my $5,000 in asavings account for a rainy day.”

Word on the StreetHow would do if you won $15,000?

by John Hendler

Pablo and Paul Rauth,Marshall

“With the odds this good, I’ve already spentthe $15,000. My Jeep is one winter away fromhaving Fred Flintstone brakes, so that’s a prior-ity. Plus, there’s a guitar at Jimmy Z’s that I’vehad my eye on. After that, Pablo and I couldpretty much single-handedly get the nation’seconomy back on track.”

Justin Hodges,Bellevue

“I would buy lots of ammunition,build a bunker and wait for the Zombieapocalypse.”

Courtney Hodges,Duck Lake

“I would buy a classic car, an olderMercedes.”

Linda Smith,Marshall

“I’ll pay some bills and then take atrip up north. It’s pretty there and theyhave a lot of golf courses.”

Eldon Vincent will lead the community backTo the Editor:To the voters of Marshall,I am a third-generation resi-

dent of Marshall and with mygrandchildren in mind (who Ihope settle in our fine commu-nity) I have a five-generation in-terest. I normally do not send aletter to the editor in regards to

our elections, but I am now be-cause my wife and I feel this isan extremely important electionfor our community’s future.

We are writing to support El-don Vincent for mayor of Mar-shall. Mr. Vincent’s backgroundas a practicing CPA and attor-ney in Marshall will allow himto lead our community back to

the fiscal responsibility we alldesire. His service as a Down-town Development Authorityboard member in Marshall hasbeen exemplary. As a down-town business owner, he has atrue stake in Marshall. Eldon’sdesire to partner with the entirecommunity including our fineschool system, our hospital, all

of our neighborhoods and citi-zens will also lead us back tothe community we truly are,not one divided.

Please cast your vote forMarshall’s mayor for EldonVincent on Nov. 6.

Marshall citizens must retain Jim Dyer as its mayorTo the Editor:The current economic chal-

lenges that we are facing todayhave reached crisis proportionswhen it comes to governing ourcities and Marshall is no excep-tion. Our city council is doing aremarkable job in guiding thecity and making the tough andoften unpopular decisions nec-essary to keep the “ship” afloat.The issues are frequently con-troversial, but the dialogue iscivil and functionality is alwaysmaintained. (Needless to say, itis not the way it’s always beenin the past.) This is in no smallpart due to the leadership of

Mayor Jim Dyer who alwayshas his eye on the ball when itcomes to what is right andgood for the community.

Jim has lived in Marshall formore than 23 years and hasserved the city on a number ofboards and commissions aswell being a member of the citycouncil and most recently asour mayor.

Yes, Jim has clearly “paidhis dues,” but more importantlyhe has gained the experience todo the job right here and rightnow. He has also built a careeras a successful attorney special-izing in municipal law. In rep-

resenting a number of govern-ment entities, he most certainlyknows what has worked welland what does not work incities and towns like Marshall.

Mayor Dyer is not runningunopposed. We know very littleabout his opponent except he’sa relative newcomer to Mar-shall and is a capable business-man. He appears to be seekingthe office based on one or tworelated issues. We’ve heardnothing as to his platform, whathe sees that is wrong with ourcouncil and the mayor, or whathe plans to do better, if elected.Jim Dyer on the other hand has

been very open about what hehas done and his vision forMarshall’s future. A change inmayor in 2012 makes no sensewhatsoever.

We are proud to be neigh-bors and friends of Jim andJeanette Dyer and their twosons who we’ve watched growup to be fine young men. Theyare an energetic and spiritualfamily and are active in a num-ber of community and churchactivities. Please join us in re-electing Jim Dyer as the mayorof Marshall.

Denny and Sue Sheridan,Marshall

Vote ‘No’ on Proposal 5 and 2/3 supermajorityTo the Editor:For all legislation, including

tax laws, the U.S. Constitutionrequires only a simple majorityunless the president vetoes it.Only then is a 2/3 supermajorityin both the Senate and the Houserequired to override that veto andmake the bill into law.

What was good enough forthe authors of the U.S. Constitu-

tion is good enough for me. I’mvoting “No” on Proposal 5.

It’s also good enough for Gov.Rick Snyder; Michigan SenateMajority Leader RandyRichardville; Gene Clem ofSouthwest Michigan Patriots(West Michigan Tea Party); andthe 35-plus statewide business, la-bor and nonprofit organizations—ranging from both the AFL-CIOand the Michigan Chamber of

Commerce to the League ofWomen Voters of Michigan—which have already joined “De-fend Michigan Democracy” tooppose Proposal 5.

I believe the surest way tocombine balancing our state bud-get, adequately maintaining es-sential services and decreasingour tax rates is to broaden the taxbase. Yet Proposal 5 requires ahard-to-obtain 2/3 supermajority

in order to do that.This is not majority rule as I

understand it.Please go to www.defend-

michigandemocracy.com to learnmore about Proposal 5.

And please join me in voting‘No” on it.

To the Editor:What makes a good

mayor? Kali Nelson, editor-in-chief of “Be There,” aD.C.-based magazine, says itwell. To summarize, shewrites that a good mayor hasa professional relationshipwith council members. Heworks as a team member andhis support of the councilmembers is integral to hissuccess. He is respectful ofthe council members’ opin-ions and he allows sufficienttime for them to make theirpoint. A good mayor does notpush the council in a directionthat is inconsistent with themajority of the council’s posi-tion to further his personalagenda. The good mayor isrespected and generally likedby his fellow council mem-bers.

Meeting skills are ex-tremely important. The goodmayor has the ability to sum-

marize the positions of thecouncil members and the citi-zens to help move the counciltowards making informed de-cisions or taking action. Amayor with institutionalknowledge is extremely valu-able when the discussion ben-efits from drawing on historyor facts to shed some light.His knowledge has beengained by experience workingwithin the city governmentlong enough to understandhow things work. The goodmayor is patient and looks atall viewpoints, taking time toweigh the good with the badof any decision. He must con-stantly juggle between beingpolitical and somewhat neu-tral, retaining professionalismwhen presenting the consen-sus to the council. The goodmayor represents the city pro-fessionally outside of the city,building and maintaininggood relationships and pro-grams with neighboring gov-ernments and programs.

Finally, a good mayor notonly works well with othercouncil members but heworks well with city staff.Respecting the staff and notattacking it, supporting andappreciating their work andmaking suggestions for im-provement for the benefit ofthe city are important for thegood mayor and the council.

Few cities I’ve seen havecitizens who care as much asthose in Marshall and no mat-ter which position one mayhave on the issues our city has

faced; most would acknowl-edge that few cities have may-ors who fit Ms. Nelson’s defi-nition of a good mayor. In myopinion, Jim Dyer does. Hehas dedicated 16 years toMarshall, he understands ourpast and he knows the innerworkings of our city. Duringhis two-year tenure as mayorthere have been improve-ments and the people havebeen given opportunities to beheard. He has a vision for thefuture in Marshall and plansare already in the works to re-alize them. Let’s count ourblessings, keep the momen-tum going and re-elect ourgood Mayor Dyer to anotherterm.

Lynne Meservey,Marshall

Letters ... continuedRe-elect Jim Dyer as Marshall’s mayor

To the Editor:I’ve had the opportunity to work with

Jim Dyer for almost four years and havehad his friendship far longer. I look to himfor guidance outside my realm of expertiseregarding city matters, and I have not beendisappointed with his unbiased opinion. Hehas worked with communities throughoutMichigan for many, many years and under-stands the intricacies of municipalities, es-pecially his hometown’s inter-workingsthrough his extensive 16 years of involve-ment with our Zoning Board of Appeals,Planning Commission and City Council.

I am convinced we need a leader with de-termination, understanding and experience,a leader with a bird’s eye window into our

past and a roadmap for our future. I won’treiterate Jim’s widespread and unselfish ac-complishments, but would ask you to judgefairly his tenured, yet honorable record.

Jim has a vision for Marshall and clear-cut expectations of what needs to occur toenhance and advance economic develop-ment, preserve our historical ambiance andmaintain sound policies. His passionate ap-proach and delivery in addressing importantissues may not always be as eloquent asdeemed appropriate by some, but shouldthat be a deciding factor to garner yourvote? I sincerely hope not.

Nick Metzger,Marshall

Support Eldon Vincent for mayorTo the Editor:Like everyone else in re-

cent weeks, I have been in-undated with informationfrom various candidates foroffice. Nevertheless, I feelcompelled to write andvoice my support for EldonVincent for mayor.

I have lived and workedin Marshall for 22 years,and in that time I havecome to know Eldon as aman who cares for thiscommunity and who is alsoa resident and local businessowner. His downtown store

(Vincent’s Village Mercan-tile) adds another reason forvisitors to come to ourtown, and it is also a greatplace to buy Michigan-made and local products.

Eldon recently came tomy rescue when I facedsome challenges andneeded the advice of an at-torney. In sitting and talkingwith him, I found that hecalmed my fears and gaveme sound advice that en-abled me to work my waythrough the crisis. I believethat he would bring this

same level-headed and com-passionate way of think-ing to the officeof Marshall’s mayor.

In closing, I would liketo say that I have neverwritten in support of anypolitical candidate before,but I feel that, if he wereour mayor, Eldon would al-ways put the best interestsof Marshall and all of itsresidents first.

Donna Barlond,Marshall

Proposal 2: ‘the Protect UnionBo$$ Job Security Proposal’

To the Editor:Proposal 2 represents an outrageous at-

tempt by government union bosses to destroythe Michigan constitution, hold employersand legislators hostage and will change andrepeal as many as 170 of Michigan’s lawsand future laws, but they haven’t revealedhow or what these changes would be.

Does that have a familiar ring? Just votefor this Healthcare Bill; then you can seewhat’s in it.

Michigan’s attorney general is warningthat it would eliminate the law requiringsafety rules for school bus drivers and couldprohibit schools from firing employees withcriminal records.

Government union bosses spent millionsof tax dollars bringing proposals to the ballotthat guarantee their bloated salaries and perksand prohibit labor freedom to workers whodo not support the union boss occupy move-ment, gun control and other socialist and far-left policies, political donations and lobbying.

As Gov. Snyder has said, Proposal 2 wouldamend our constitution to change the waybargaining would work in our state. It couldlead to unlimited wage increases and early re-tirements with lavish pensions - all at the tax-payers’ expense. Elected representativeswould be legislatively powerless to stopthem... and We the People would lose ourvoices and power to govern.

That’s pretty scary, considering the fact

that state workers’ average annual compensa-tion, including benefits, was pegged at$85,076 in 2009—-more than twice their pri-vate sector counterparts’ pay and benefits at$39,986. On top of this, the number of em-ployees who are unionized is 5.5 times thenumber of workers in the private sector.

Proposal 2 states that it would grant publicand private employees the constitutional rightto organize and bargain collectively throughlabor unions. But they already have theserights! And they’ve taken advantage of em-ployees in many situations, forcing them tojoin unions and pay the dues in order to getor keep a job.

Unlike the federal government, states arerequired to balance their budgets and Michi-gan legislators have made great strides in thisarea, starting by reducing their own personalsalaries and budgets, getting control ofdeficits and out-of-control spending.

Proposal 2 would give government laborunions the ability to repeal many of the re-forms that have helped Michigan start to re-cover. In fact, it would amend up to 18 sec-tions of the state constitution.

We don’t need our wonderful state consti-tution amended by and for less than 1 percentof Michigan citizens.

Vote ‘No’ on Proposal 2.

Jane Wilson,Marshall

Re-elect Commissioner Steve FrisbieTo the Editor:As residents of Calhoun

County, we have a greatdeal of influence in ourcounty government. Ourvotes and our choices forcounty commissioners willdirectly impact the way ourlocal tax dollars are spent.

As a resident of ConvisTwp., I am supporting SteveFrisbie for District 4 CountyCommissioner. Steve hasdemonstrated the leadership,determination, and commit-ment to improve the systemand reduce unnecessaryspending in his district andthe county. He has fulfilledhis position not as someonelooking out for his own ben-efit, but as a man with a sin-cere sense of duty to thosewho elected him.

As a commissioner, Steve

declined to accept health in-surance and helped to elimi-nate this option for allcounty commissioners. Thisbrought a first year savingsof $70,000 to county tax-payers. As a member of theRoad Commission TaskForce, he worked to uncoverthe waste and uncheckedspending of the Road Com-mission. His efforts were in-strumental in the elimina-tion of this unaccountablebureaucracy, freeing up taxdollars and reducing the sizeof government.

Steve’s abilities to leadare evident in his role toeliminate “present” as a vot-ing option for members ofthe Board of Commission-ers. This will mean commis-sioners must vote either‘yes’ or ‘no’ on an issue be-

fore the board. As Stevetold me, “We were electedto lead, not hide from toughvotes.”

Frisbie’s commitment tofiscal responsibility is evi-dent in the 2013 budget.When it is implemented, itwill show spending cuts of$6 million. These savingswill be realized without im-pacting core services.

As a local businessowner, these are attributes Iadmire; as a voter in District4, they are the qualities I de-mand from my commis-sioner.

Please join me in re-elect-ing Steve Frisbie as our Dis-trict 4 commissioner.

David R. Mead,Marshall

Time for a change in Michigan HouseTo the Editor:We need good, honest politicians to rep-

resent the taxpayers here in our state and inWashington. The people in the 63rd districthave only one choice for honesty; that isBill Farmer. The current leader, Jase Bolger,apparently is not that. Mr. Bolger and hiscolleague Roy Schmidt of Grand Rapidstried to rig the coming election in the Re-publican Party’s favor. I cannot understandwhy the law did not find both Bolger andSchmidt guilty of any wrongdoing. I believeboth will eventually be found guilty ofbreaking some law.

I have known Bill Farmer for more than20 years. He has always stood up for thosehe represented and went well above theminimum required of him. Bill works al-most around the clock with little sleep to dohis job. Farmer has been on almost every

committee you can think of to help peoplein all walks of life. Bill has been involvedwith law and legal procedure and has beenan excellent resource when I needed toknow about any law and how it would affectthe people I represented. I would call Billand have an answer within 24 hours. This ishow committed he is.

It is time for a change in the MichiganHouse of Representatives. We need some-one who has the highest of ethics, integrityand character that will represent all the peo-ple, and that person is Bill Farmer.

We only loan our power to our represen-tatives and when they abuse it, that is thetime to take it away from them. It’s time wehold all politicians accountable to who theywork for – we, the taxpayers.

Eldon Vincent is a tremendous asset to MarshallTo the Editor:A man with integrity. A man with honor.

A man with compassion. A man with busi-ness knowledge and business sense. A manwho is passionate about the betterment ofhis community. A man who seeks to bringhis community together by thinking andworking as one. Who, you ask, could besuch a man? One simple answer, EldonVincent, and we are proud and excited tosupport Eldon’s candidacy for mayor ofMarshall.

In the many years we have known El-don, Carrie, and their family, it has becomequite apparent that all of the qualities aboveare true. The moment the Vincent familyarrived in Marshall, Eldon became involved

in all aspects of our community: in ourschools, in our business sector and in help-ing Marshall in whatever way was neededat any given moment. From supporting andleading fund-raising efforts for our MPSstudents to involvement in community or-ganizations to opening not only one, butseveral small businesses to add jobs and di-versity to Marshall’s own struggling econ-omy, Eldon has had a vision of what hisgood citizenship could bring to the table,and brought it he has.
