I have been sent an email from a resident here in Plainfield that asked if I would post his/her comment as a blog entry, as he/she has left this comment on many other bloggers' pages, and has yet to see it posted. So anonymous, here you go...

What a difference a WEEK makes. Not too long ago, at this time, Assemblyman Jerry Green had just left the podium at Newark Liberty International Airport Marriott Hotel after sitting with Governor Corzine and Senators Lautenberg and Menendez. Mr. Green addressed the 300 attendees at NJ Minority Business Networking Conference about improved and enhanced opportunities for minority firms on state and federal contracts. The messagewas well received by the gathering and reinforced as it has been during the Assemblyman’s tenure in office. He has made it happen.
Say what you may about style, Jerry Green has taken calls late at night on and off weekends to help Plainfield and NJ minority business persons. He will be on the platform next week as the Governor signs the Executive Order highlighting minority business interests. He and Senator Ronald Rice are a formidable team as they make our smallvoices heard throughout the legislative chambers on business and community matters.
As for those discerning cries about the Tunnel Project, there is no greater advocate for minority workers and businesses than Assemblyman Green. His reputation as a strong advocate for increased goals for minority business participation is well documented and his calls to the highest levels of NJDOT and NJT are documented. The facts are not indispute about his impact on the largest mega project in the country. Do your homework.
As we said earlier, what a difference a WEEK makes.

How do we readers know that anonymous is not just a paid operative for Assemblyman Green or a recipient of governmental favors or contracts? The comment sounds like a press release to me. Maybe that's why it wasn't posted by the other bloggers, who prefer to let Assemblyman Green use his other available channels, like this blog, to flack for his campaign.
I can assure you that the person who sent me their comment is not paid by JG or someone who has any other motive other than showing both sides. I don't agree with everything that JG does, but I will say that there are very few people who give an honest view of things that he's done.
I will, however, be sure to give your compliment (his/her writing was good enough to come across as a press release) to the anonymous author of the comment, as I'm sure he/she will enjoy that!
