Congressman Anthony Weiner is back, and he’s running
for mayor of New York City. He announced on Tuesday in a video/ad made with his
wife and child, announcing his candidacy. Weiner, who was forced to resign from
congress after he tweeted pictures of his weiner to underage college girls,
says the he “made mistakes, but has learned
from them.” Weiner’s announcement may have been sparked by Mark
Sanford, another disgraced politician, involved in a scandal, being elected to
congress a couple of weeks ago. It seems that voters are forgiving politicians
for their previous mistakes.
While I
agree with many of Weiner’s policies,
I do not think he is fit be the Mayor of New York. He has made some major wrong
decisions in the recent past, and is not ready to be mayor of the most populous
city in America. He is still young, and has most of his political career ahead
of him. If he wants to jump back into the political game he should start again,
at the bottom of the totem pole. He should run for New York City Council, The
New York State legislator, or even the USA congress, but NYC Mayor is to far of
a leap for Weiner.
