It's hard at least for me to rebut those 6 reasons although Bloomberg MAY have been the reason for ONE of them. So John it's obvious you want a change in leadership. Do you think Salerno should be that change?

[John Eadicicco]

Tom Salerno was a delegate under Mike Cordiello and asking around to folks who work at other companies, I have not heard any negative feedback, in his representation, even when he did the hearings at OPT. I truly don't believe that Michael Cordiello will run again for President. Vinny Butero has told a few people that he and Robin are going to run in the next election. Vinny for president. Came from good sources. I have had many a conversation with Tommy Salerno and he thinks that we need a stronger voice representing the rank and file of 1181. Thinks that we ALL should be under ONE contract. I totally support that stance on negotiations.

Hey John that was one your best posts yet .Its a lot easier to listen when you're not attacking someone.Your voice is just as important as the next guy.As for your list don't see much wrong with it.When we share our concerns and grievances respectfully we can learn from as well as educate one another.And in your response to me no I am not completely pleased with our current methods of our leadership.

Yes, exactly. Even I actually agree with some of the things John says, (and WakeUp123, for that matter), but when he doesn't agree with the someone else he turns that difference of opinion into hatred for the other person. This is counterproductive to trying to get the other person to digest the substance of what one is saying.

Hmmmm..

Just had a lengthy conversation with Vinny and Robin.Apparently  neither one has any knowledge of  Vinny running for President.Yes they are both on the EB but NEITHER one has released any information of Claiming to run for President.

So,the information that was stated earlier on this post is wrong.Just thought I would enlighten some with FACTS not FICTION

That's what I mean by which "version" of the truth one chooses to believe.

You say you spoke to Vinny and that apparently neither one has any "knowledge" of Vinny running for President. I'm a little confused. Are you saying you asked Vinny if he's going to run for President? If so did he say yes, no or maybe? And in my opinion even if he did say no what else would you expect him to say until Michael officially said he would not run again? That would be like during Obama's first term Biden came out publicly and said he was going to run for President. So it could be possible that Vinny had told a few people in confidence that he is going to run.

This is how my phone conversation went with Vinny:

Me: Are you running for president?

Vinny: Of course not,Michael is still our president.

Me: Well ,someone said you said you were.

Vinny: I don't know who said that.But I can tell you I NEVER said that.Michael is not going anywhere.



Is that clear enough Proud Member?

Vinny Butero has told a few people that he and Robin are going to run in the next election. Vinny for president. Came from good sources.

Good sources? Read on ...

I guess there is no source as good as the horse's mouth.

If you go back and read your original post you will see where I got confused. You say "I just spoke to Vinny and apparently neither one as any knowledge of Vinny running for President." Instead of saying Vinny told me he never said he was going to run for President. Excuse me for not understanding. I guess I'm not perfect just like you English. Why the attitude? It was a simple question that by the way I had the correct answer before you clarified it in your second post. Of course Vinny whether or not he has thoughts of running is not going to say it while Michael is still President and could still possibly run for another term. I hope it is CLEAR enough for you that I'm just concerned for myself, my family, this Local which means every Member & their families as well as you and yours. I ask questions to gain knowledge not to start an argument.

I have to admit, Just_Right, your first post was not exactly clear on who said what. Thanks for clarifying.
