That, coming from someone not easily impressed by politicians. <BR/><BR/>While his answer was incomplete (the problem is monumental), it was sincere and empathetic. <BR/><BR/>As best I understood, he basically acknowledged that the reform mandate, such as it is, is a deeply flawed starting point. <BR/><BR/>What impressed about him the most, was his command of a broad spectrum of issues, as evidenced by his articulate in-depth responses to questions. <BR/><BR/>The simple fact that he holds open-house, open-forum district meetings shows that he is willing to listen, and that he is open to his constituents legitimate concerns, opinions and suggestions. <BR/><BR/>He did indicate that he would be receptive to hearing my suggestions relative to public health policy.<BR/><BR/>In short, I believe we are lucky to have Senator Ben Downing representing us.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for reading, for your comments and support.docmayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09516135127106549157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-162091343735059925.post-30173822462624049922009-03-02T06:55:00.000-05:002009-03-02T06:55:00.000-05:00I'd be interested to know what our lovely State Se...I'd be interested to know what our lovely State Senator had to say in response to your comments.
