10 Reasons to Vote For Me #WriteMyNameMommaKai

Welcome and welcome back. It's another amazing day in paradise. Thank you so much for being here. 

I'm so excited by this post. I have a playlist on YouTube that gives an expanded explanation for each of the 10 reasons to write my name as your preferred candidate for the next mayor of Raleigh. So this is the "Reader's Digest" version (for those who are old enough to remember what that means). 

Here's the introduction listing them all 10 reasons with brief explanations, similar to what's listed here. 

Here is the list with the link to each video.

1. I'm every woman - I have more in common with the entire population of the city than any other candidate.

2. I'm actually in and engaged with the entire community, not just a portion of it - Wisdom and I have been everywhere and have met all kinds of people in all areas of the city. 

3. I'm not a politician, I'm a mom - I realized that the leaders who are elected this year will set the stage for how the world will operate once my young Black male superhero is an adult so I'm running for him and the future generation he represents, not to advance anyone else's personal agenda, especially when it's for their personal profit and not the entire community.

4. People don't like me and/or my son. I'm ok with that.

5. I'm not the smartest and I don't have to be.

6. I’m a systems thinker - I'm not ok with the current political system or the vile way some people desecrate what should be a sacred and humbling privilege, responsibility, opportunity and duty. I want that to change. I'm able to initiate that change.

7. I’m leading with compassion and neuroscience - The common denominator of both words is that there's a need to be met.

8. My young Black male superhero and I live in our car - People like us rarely have a seat at the table, let alone are able to lead the conversations.

9. We have the most City of Raleigh swag (Heeheehee...) - That's right. We have the toilet squishy from the Water Dept. I bet none of the other candidates can top that one (wink, wink, smile)! Seriously though, I mention that because we're at events. We go places where staff are and engage with them and/or learn from them.

10. Raleigh has never had a black female mayor - Need I say more? I'll only add, "Representation Matters". The End!

Please check out the videos for details or go straight to the next post to find out where I stand on a number of issues affecting our city. 

I hope what you see, read and/or hear will compel you to write my name as your preferred candidate for the next mayor of Raleigh. Thank you again and in advance. Enjoy the amazing day you’re creating. Peace…

My Why #WriteMyNameMommaKai

Welcome and welcome back. It's another amazing day in paradise. Thank you so much for being here. This is the most important post I will write.  And I can't believe I haven't written about my why yet. I know I've recorded a video that mentions it but I didn't write about it. And this is too important for me not to do that. First of all, to be crystal clear, I hate politics. I don't even like using the word "hate". But my feelings against politics is so deep that I don't have an alternative word to use that describes how I feel. I'm not sure if even loathe or despise would give it justice. So I'm sure you're super extra curious about why I'm running if that's the case. Well... first, I'll tell you the greatest lesson I've learned about government. It is that the challenges our community is facing now is based on the decisions made by those who were in power 8, 10, 12 or more years ago. I want to thank District E Councilwo...

One Wake Candidates' Forum #WriteMyNameMommaKai

Welcome and welcome back. It's another amazing day in paradise. Thank you so much for being here. The night I registered as a write-in candidate for mayor I went to my first candidates' forum. And I want to talk about what happened. It was hosted by an organization called One Wake and they had a goal to get 1000 people there. I was so excited because One Wake is an organization of churches and I was sure I was going to find my people even though I don't even go to church.  The reason why is I have a business idea that connects churches under one organization to focus on the most pressing issues of our time. It is based on a book called "Step One: The Gospel and the Ghetto". Even though I didn't let them know I was coming, I anticipated being on that stage to introduce myself. And I did! In fact, here's the recording . And here's an excerpt from an article about it. Yup! My announcement made it into Indy Week.  I have to be totally honest with you. I wa...
