A Painful Time in New York City History
After I Blogged how we needed to Elect someone other than Toby Stavisky...I learned that Mr. John Messer was a close confidant and Speech Writer to former Mayor David Dinkins...Ouch! A long time Korean Leader came to me and was complaining how he still remembers the hurt and pain caused by the Korean Boycott by the Radicals of the time and how David Dinkins stood idle and did nothing.
Many say that Dinkins failure to stop the violence and his support of the radicals turned the race over to Rudy Giuliani. So I wonder aloud...
Did Messer write Dinkins speech on the Korean Boycott?
Does Messer share the same failed ideology that near ruined the City?
Will he publicly denounce Dinkins his old boss for his divisive politics?
We need a true outsider for Senate... Not a Political hack since the days of Dinkins! I will still support him over Toby but not with any enthusiasm.
John Messer worries me...who is he where did he come from and why is he running? He may be a Stavisky plant to ensure a real challenge does not arise.
ReplyDeleteIsaac claims he's a democrat but he surrounds himself with Republicans like Dennis Gallagher. I think that Isaac is the one that wants to ensure real change does not arise.
ReplyDeleteSTATE SENATE candidate John Messer has spent the past few months campaigning on a platform to save small businesses and middle-class homeowners.
ReplyDeleteBut the 40-year-old lawyer once headed a firm embroiled in a multimillion-dollar mortgage fraud and identity theft ring that targeted vulnerable, middle-income New Yorkers.
Messer was the president of Griffin Mortgage Corp., which had offices in Queens and Long Island.
Three years ago, one of its branch managers, Jacob Milton, was arrested for taking customer information and using it to buy homes and open credit card accounts without their knowledge.
Many victims were recent immigrants who trusted Milton because he was from Bangladesh, investigators said.
Messer was never charged. Milton is behind bars on Rikers Island and is to be sentenced this month.
Messer is one of two Democrats challenging incumbent Toby Stavisky in the Sept. 14 primary for the 16th District seat. He said the scandal should not scare off potential voters.
