My Dear Friends & Neighbors,
Thank you for joining me tonight, together with my esteemed colleagues, all running for a seat in the Vaad Hakhol. I am pleased to see that there is a positive move to clear up the internal politics and strife that has been eating away at our community for so many years.
Op-Ed: A Letter to my Supporters
Note: This is a speech I would have given to my supporters, as a contestant in the Vaad Hakhol elections. This speech is purely hypothetical, as I unfortunately cannot see the value of spending time and effort in running for a seat, being that there is so much politics, name-calling and smearing going on. Please use it as some food for thought.
