At 2 in the PM Jason Kander will officially announce his Mayoral ambitions to the crowd at the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum in Kansas City's 18th & Vine Jazz District.
The venue is an interesting choice for many reasons but here are a few that come to mind first:
- He's on the 3rd District home turf of mayoral contenders and Council dudes Jermaine Reed & Quinton Lucas. Obviously, this is a gambit to not only offer a gesture of "unity" for all of KCMO voters but also to keep the campaign from becoming a black vs. white contest that's mostly unfamiliar and dangerous to the Kander campaign.
- It's not really that strange of a choice, Mayor Sly is aligned with Jason Kander and this location also hosted both of the outgoing Mayor's election victory parties.
- But it's not a great choice, if reporters are competent in the least they'll ask about constant & controversial subsidy for the district and maybe the problems with the Jazz Museum right across the hall . . . Again, Kander stays winning by avoiding the details that are desperately needed in KCMO political conversation.
Your baseball analogy is better but it's still too early in the game to start calling strike-outs, grand slams or any other hack catchphrases that will cause TKC cry foul.
Developing . . .
Yes, lots of stupid metaphors but most of this mayoral race is going to be about who is pitching and who is catching.

Awesome ! Extremely appropriate, since Blacks have given so much to our fair city ! No one shamelessly virtue-signals like a Jew.
ReplyDelete"...if reporters are competent...." Does anybody except the reporters themselves still believe that?
ReplyDeleteHe really does need to change his name. Jason Pander is so much more appropriate.
ReplyDeleteDiana is too lovely to go to such a shitty part of town.
ReplyDeleteFirst time Pander has even been in that part of town.
ReplyDeleteHopes someone gives him a tour.
Phoniness has now reached levels not seen, even in KCMO government, for decades.
When's Oprah coming to town to campaign?
Or maybe the whole crew from "The View"?
RE: KANDER FOR MAYOR CAMPAIGN KICK-OFF AT KANSAS CITY NEGRO LEAGUES BASEBALL MUSEUM
ReplyDelete....because nothing quite says "PANDER" like a wealthy white Jew from Johnson County Kansas talking about his heroism for a few hours at 18th and Vine while trying to avoid touching the people of color.
It's sure to be a good time as Kander recalls his poor childhood in suburban Shawnee Kansas, and the dangerous hallways at his private high school.
I hope there's video, as Kander hates mingling with people of color. He knows he's under scrutiny at the event, so he'll force some "thank you's" to the serving staff, janitorial crew, and security guard, but he's incapable of having a conversation with them.
Sylvester James pushed Kander into the Mayor's race only because he doesn't trust any Council member to succeed him, and remain quiet about the financial corruption he's leaving behind.
Note: Kander quit his high school baseball team after freshman year when the starters refused his requests to blindfold them and play with their equipment.
Go4KC will probably be in attendance tooting Mayor Slie's bullhorn while wearing a Jason Kander limited edition founding member T-Shirt.
ReplyDeleteSo who else are you going to vote for? One of Sly James' twelve Apostles who've been lockstepping along with the insane development in downtown while neglecting the people they were elected to serve?
ReplyDeleteMaybe Clay Chastain, aka "Funkhouser II"?
Never mind, I forgot for a moment that you don't bother to vote, you just bitch, whine and post, don't you?

ReplyDeleteJason, you better start heading over to 18th and Vine for your event this afternoon.
Make sure you've got your hand-sanitizer because you'll be forced to shake hands with black folks, and I know how you hate that.
Explain to them why they're too stupid to have a black person represent them as Mayor, and that a white Kansas Jew who avoids people of color is exactly what they need.
P.S. Before you head over to that part of town you better write your blood-type on your loafers.
Diana is a Russian immigrant.
ReplyDeleteWon't do as a wife for a Presidential hopeful...after all, the Democrats keep telling us we need to hate the Russians.
This race is Kander's to lose.
ReplyDeleteOne wishes the guy with the bat would take a home run cut.
ReplyDeleteSly supporting Kander is all I need to know I'm not voting for that scum.
ReplyDeletePander doing some pandering today? Will he move his arms around on the mic like he did in the video?
ReplyDeleteThis dipshit is a dollar store Justin Trudeau.
ReplyDeleteDiana is a beautiful woman
ReplyDeleteJason Pander is on point in that he shows judgement for picking this location to begin fooling half of the voters all the time.
ReplyDeletei dunno, kinda like reaching into a closet and pulling out some grout ready to go.
