Change Has Come to The River City (Jacksonville)

Finally, change has come to the city of Jacksonville, Florida. Alvin Brown has been elected, the first African American Mayor (Democrat) in a historic republican city. Winning over his opponent, Mike Hogan, by 1648 votes sends a message to our local government that change is needed and change has come. Two years in a row I told the city commissioners that Jacksonville is poised for greatness if it would embrace positive social change. We must come into the 21st century as a leader in educational reform, technology, community development, labor and public safety. In order to effect this needed change we must come together as one community, with one purpose. "Jacksonville:The River City that's changing the face of America."
