Brandon Mikal McCray a young small business owner makes his first bid for public office with an common sense agenda. In his bid for City Council District 1 in Birmingham, AL, Mr. McCray believes that it's time for change, a change that will bring the City of Birmingham back to the fore front.Brandon McCray has stood out in the last few months and weeks on his agenda for change. He has focused on economic development, community development and bringng basic services and a better quality of life back to the people of district 1.
What I like about Brandon is that he is very down to earth and community minded. He don't leave out the people, he always include the people in all his thoughts and plans. That's why I believe that Brandon McCray would be a great councilman for District 1.
I just can't see any of the others representing the district, without addressing the needs of the people and sharing their concerns. I haven't heard no other candidate in District talk about the needs of the people and the values of District 1 like Brandon McCray. Brandon has really addressed the issues of District 1.
Take a look at your candidates that's running and ask yourself, is this candidate feeling me? Do that candidate sound like me? Have that candidate answered my questions and concerns?
Neither the Incumbent Joel Montgomery, or the challengers such as LaShunda Scales, Roderick Jackson, Chris Cummings, or Betty Cannon Corna has shared their views on the values of District 1. It's not about getting elected to have an title or get to city hall to continue the bickering and poor leadership or create a pathway to higher office, but its about representing the people and doing it well and honestly.
Trust is important and accountability is a must, on Tuesday August 25, 2009, please go out to the polls and vote for new leadership.
