"I guarantee intelligent, educated and trained people in the room connect to me."
- Our School Board President, Marshall Weinberg
     The Independent, June 17, 2011

"By now most people realize that I'm not a, "tell you what you want to hear, don't rock the boat, what's in it for me kind of Board member" (Marshall Weinberg campaign advertisement).

No way.

He's a man against the world, swimming against the tide.

He is the humble one, Massillon's own Hero.


"With decades of experience in finance and management I have pushed through the "personal agenda politics" of others that have held our District back for so long" (Marshall Weinberg campaign advertisement).

The "personal agenda politics" of others?

As opposed to what, the "personal agenda politics" of the 'friends of the program' football boosters?

The "intelligent, educated and trained people in the room" are coming together to support their School Board President.

Help them help Marshall.

The campaign to re-elect Marshall Weinberg to the Massillon Board of Education will host a fundraiser from 5 to 7 p.m. on Sept. 6 at Elum Music Co., 280 Federal Ave. NW.

A $25 donation is requested.

We assume pizza and pop will be served.

A small price to pay to celebrate a "decision made out of strength."

Come rejoice that the 'Friends of the Program' have hijacked, excuse us, "reorganized" our school system.

See for yourself if Marshall's lips move when Rik Goodright speaks.

It will be the next best thing to actually attending a football booster club meeting.

Don't miss it, by gum.
