Dear Editor,

Leadership, vision, intelligence and compassion. These are the qualities that our community must have to move forward. We need to create a business-friendly town with safe neighborhoods to attract businesses and create jobs, not to mention an environment that people want to live in. Pat Paul has those qualities as well as a vision to lead the citizens of Oakdale towards some positive and attainable goals. We need a leader that is willing to work hard to make this happen. Pat Paul will involve the citizens of our area in the process of effective decision making to create positive changes in our community. Oakdale needs this attainable goal by having a progressive and effective proven leader such as Pat Paul. Vote for Pat Paul to be the next Mayor of Oakdale to make things happen.

Sincerely,

Brian and Karen O’Bannon
