Re#13: Good point, although I would think that out of the nearly 35,000 people that voted for Kevin Beiser, there might be a handful that would take to the "netwaves" to put down the falsehoods and baseless rhetoric that seem to be the tools of Kevin's opposition. Kevin Beiser's handled budgets that were 15 times as large as his opponents, and that is more in-line with the size of the School Budget, but you would think they weren't listening to that. As for the others I can't say. Although it is just a little interesting that the rebuttals to my posting are only minutes apart. There are other comments that are they same, just minutes apart, which is just about enough time to write both and post them. Just an observation. As far as Kevin Beiser's aspirations? I guess that's pretty clear to those that know him. Who has spent the last six-years working hard to better the lives of children? who has spent years working to successfully turn around a failing school and did so by working together with his fellow Teachers (OOOOOOOOOh Teachers BAD)and Staff members ALL FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE CHILDREN? And who was voted Math Teacher of the Year? and who was voted by the CHILDREN of Granger Junior High School to be the Most Inspirational Teacher, and Most Caring Teacher? That's right Kevin Beiser. And that's why I'm voting for Kevin Beiser because he's been working for the Kids, as a TEACHER, for years. One final comment, to blatantly put down dozens of Highly Respected, Regarded, and Devoted Educators, Parents, Teachers, and Community Leaders that have chose to support Kevin Beiser is disrespectful and disingenuous. You know nothing as to the reasons why these individuals support Kevin Beiser's candidacy, but one would think it's because he is who they think will be the BEST candidate to represent the Kid's needs on the school board.— September 17, 2010 10:36 a.m.

I'm voting for Kevin Beiser, Math Teacher of the Year, because owning a "million dollar" company means nothing if you have no experience in Education and that's the position you're applying for. That's why Mechanics don't apply to be Chefs. And for all you out there that think Kevin Beiser has NO business experience and only worked in a "photo lab" you're about 10% correct. Kevin Beiser did START OUT in a photo lab but after a year was Promoted to NW U.S. Regional Manager overseeing 7 States, and a $100 MILLION dollar-plus annual budget. So if you think Kevin Beiser has no experience in a Real BIG business guess again. Kevin Beiser has also been endorsed by hundreds of Educators, Parents, fellow Teachers, and Community Leaders that KNOW Kevin Beiser is the ONLY Candidate for the School Board. Here are just a FEW of the Highly Respected Educators and Community Leaders that Support Kevin Beiser for School Board, *Dr. Jane Gawronski, CA Superintendent of the Year (1997) *David Valladolid, President of the Parent Institute for Quality *Education (PIQE)* *Lisa Burgess, Parent and President of GATE in SUHSD* *Jose Cruz, CEO The San Diego Council on Literacy* *Bruce Arnold, President Greater San Diego Math Council* *Frances O'Neill Zimmerman, Former SD School Board Trustee *Arlie Ricasa, President Sweetwater School Board Trustee *Sharon Jones, President San Diego County Board of Education Trustee *Rich Grosch, President San Diego College Board of Education Trustee *Bertha Lopez, Vice-President Sweetwater School Board Trustee *Pearl Quiñones, Sweetwater School Board Trustee *Francine Busby, School Board Trustee *Chris Stampolis, Califonia State Community College Board of Education Trustee *Bill Schwandt, San Diego College Board Trustee *Peter Zschiesche, San Diego College Board Trustee *Maria Senour, San Diego College Board Trustee *Teresa Valladolid, Southwestern College Board Trustee *Bob Filner, Congressmember, Chairman Veterans' Affairs Cmt, Former SD School Board Trustee *Susan Davis, Congressmember, Armed Services Committee, Former SD School Board Trustee *Betty Yee, Chairwoman, California State Board of Equalization *Christine Kehoe, California State Senator *Lori Saldaña, Assemblymember, Assistant Majority Whip, Former Professor *Marty Block, Assemblymember, Chair Higher Education Committee, Former Professor *Mary Salas, Assemblymember, Chair Committee on Veterans Affairs *Todd Gloria, San Diego City Council, Committee on Budget and Finance *Donna Frye, San Diego City Council, Government Efficiency and Openness Committee *Ben Hueso, President San Diego City Council *Sherri Lightner, San Diego City Council *Marti Emerald, San Diego City Council *Toni Atkins, former San Diego City Council, former Acting Mayor *Crystal Crawford, Del Mar City Council *David Roberts, Solana Beach City Council and Parent I'm voting for Kevin Beiser because he'll put the KIDS FIRST, just like he does in the classroom.— September 16, 2010 7:25 p.m.
