Dear Source:
I am so amazed at all of our Virgin Islands Government leaders falling all over themselves at the popularity of Obama. It is interesting that these same leaders of our Centralized Government refuse to consider Island Councils and establishing a "participatory government" which would bring the people into the "decision making process". Just think, Governor deJongh, by using an Executive Order, you could establish such town councils and bring "hope" and management to our islands and our people. Let's "hope" President Obama will show you how to hear the peoples' voice.
