Just wondering what people think of Lee Gonzales? We were both once on Dale Kildee's staff, worked closely together on a couple 4th ward campaigns back in the 80's and were once good friends.
Does he worship "The Don' as much as his puppet son?
Is Lee serving the citizens of his district well? Thoughts? |

I think he's a very good rep. from the 49th, however I disagree with his friendship with Williamson. Nonetheless a great legislator, leader and excellent character for a politician. |

I suppose he's all of those things...as long as you agree with him. I've sent him 3 emails over the past year...haven't received a single reply. |

Interesting. I've heard some people in my district contact him instead of Clack because they think he is better to work with. |

Its funny how locally elected officals stay clear of blogging on sites like this. Im sure most check in to see whats happening. If I was an elected offical, I would be all over sites like this simply because people who are on these sites, are more aware of issues and sometimes throw out solutions that might actually be able to help.
I would challenge both Don Williamson, Dayne Walling as well as state legislators like Gonzales and Clack and Don's ward puppets elected by the citizens of Flint to become "Flintoids" and come discuss topics with people. People who might be able to help. I know that most can hide behind their "campaign websites" but lets prove their worth, talking meat and potatoes with the common folk? Whataya say? |

Such pompous, self-aggrandisement. Al (Jr.) adds to his thoughtless attack a certain mindless hatred. His talk kindles the animosity that festers in our community.
It's none of his damn business with whom I associate, whether it be a governor, a factory worker or an aspiring entrepreneur. I do not detect any genuine ideas from his commentary, nor do I wish to talk about "meat and potatoes" with a political hack.
Additionally, Mr. Garcia inflates himself and is a liar. I do not recall that he was on Dale Kildee's full-time staff. He was, I believe, a campaign volunteer. And while we did work on campaigns, he is not a "good" friend as he suggests.
I will share these brief thoughts with his parents.
Where in the world is Lee Gonzales? Here I am... |

Lee, Its nice to see you finally join this site (as of yesterday).
I was just curious about your "relationship" with the Mayor. I was just wondering if you fit neatly in his back pocket with your son is all. I just figured with Ehren, Sandy, Joe and the pack of Pall Malls in there, there might not be enough room for you!
I never attacked you personally or professionally. I just wanted to know what the people you represent think of the job you are doing. It seems like you keep a low profile and was looking for opinions.
Another thing, I never claimed to be a full time Kildee staffer, I did serve as an intern on his staff for a year or so if I do recall, as well as putting in several hours per week working on the campaign.
But as we all know, we all made some mistakes when we were young, now didnt we?
Say hello to my parents for me when you see them...thanks!
PS...there alot of things that are "festering" in Flint, please do your part to prevent the next Benton Harbor.
One last thing....can you tell us if you DO endorse Don Williamson? Im sure those who you represent would like to know. |

true enough. I doubt the elected Mr Gonzales has the time and inclination to be on message boards like these.
of course his name may be Lee Gonzales too, just not the state rep. |

Iwould be surprised if it wasnt the "real" Lee Gonzales. He knows Im a "Junior". He is also good friends with my parents.
I have nothing but respect for Lee Gonzales and his career in public service. He has represented the hispanic community in Flint well over the past three decades and has always been a decent family man.
I just think the two people in Lansing representing Flint need to do more in helping solve the problems that Flint continues to have.
I appauld Lee for the work he has done on education, but ask the average citizen of Flint if it is enough. I bet the answer is NO! There is still a lot to be done.
If Lee is supporting Williamson, the people want solid reasons as to why. What has Don Williamson done to improve Flint? What has he done for schools? Solving the crime issue? Drugs and guns?
Williamson might have paved miles and miles of roads, but if Flint continues down the road its on now, those roads will lead to nowhere. Worst yet, the younger generation will use those roads to "get the hell out of Dodge!"
