Jeb’s end

Not since the introduction of New Coke has more money been thrown away on a product no one wanted.

What amazes me is that in all the stories about Jeb Bush’s miserable campaign, the candidate still seemed to disregard his brother’s toxicity. Yet, I have no doubt that when the book is finally written on Jeb’s run, his downfall will be seen as a strange form of fratricide.

Vote for civility and ethics for better local governments

By Jim Cason, former mayor, Coral Gables, Merrett R. Stierheim, former Miami-Dade County manager

There are many important municipal elections scheduled this year throughout Miami-Dade County. The impact of those elections on local residents spans across many issues, like personal safety and security, taxation, and neighborhood recareation programs.

Because these issues often affect the quality of residential life and the delivery of municipal public services, residents should take more than passing interest in who their candidates are and what they stand for. It is most important for all of us to become informed and vote.
