What Chicago is talking about this week:
It's electioneering season again (isn't it always?) in Chicago as the mayor's election is just a few weeks away. And, as predicted, the race for the next mayor is quickly becoming more and more about the race of the next mayor. Unity behind one African American candidate was achieved as individuals were pressured out ... and now that same pressure is on for the two main Hispanic candidates to "voluntarily" opt for just one to stay in the race ... all to promote unity (at least within one's own race) and to defeat the chosen one in Rahm.
Let's run the numbers, though, as the winner must get over 50% on Feb 22 to avoid a runoff in April, and with a racial make-up in the metropolis of 36.8% black, 32.8% non-asian white and 26.0% hispanic/latino -- somebody's got to rise to the challenge and start building color blind coalitions to run this city.
Irrespective of race, let's just keep it noncontroversial and list them all alphabetically -- Braun, Chico, DelValle and Emmanuel. And now that I see it that way, do we have the makings of an LSAT logic game? Maybe we can skip the voting and solve a logic puzzle to choose our next leader?
