I can motivate people to become in­
volved in helping to solve the mas­
sive problems facing their commu­
nity. Jackson Action is just what the
| doctor ordered.
On the question of the danger of
drugs to our families, communities
| and nation, it was Jesse Jackson who
raised this issue to the level of na­
tional defense and national security
during his 1988 presidential cam­
paign. He speaks to thousands of
young people each and every week
exhorting them to live a drug free life
and his personal credibility on this
question is impeccable. But Jesse
Jackson also understands the root
causes of drugs, crime and violence.
He is capable of challenging Amer­
ica to move beyond the flawed policy
of building more prisons and locking
up more prisoners to policies which
promote human development-edu­
cation daycare housing, healthcare
and decent jobs.
Indeed Washington, D.C. would
be an excellent laboratory for
Jackson to institute a version of his
program to utilize public pension
funds for infra-structure develop­
ment. And Washington, D.C.’s
numerous neighborhood associa­
tions and its structure of Advisory
Neighborhood Commissions could
be mobilized under Jackson’s leader­
ship to spearhead people based
community economic development
programs to assist in alleviating the
problem, of grinding poverty which
plagues many of D.C.’s neighbor­
hoods.
Putting together an administra­
tion to manage the affairs of Wash­
ington, D.C. is another asset which
Jesse Jackson would bring to the
mayor’s office. As the most famous
mayor in the world, Jackson would
attract the most talented, skilled and
committed planners, administrators
and managers in the nation, there are
legions of highly motivated and
managers in the nation. There are
legions of highly motivated and
highly skilled people who would line
up for a chance to be a part of a
Jackson administration in Washing­
ton, D.C.
Then there is the matter of self-
determination and statehood for
Washington, D.C. What better per­
son than Jesse Jackson to organize
the national support, congressional
district by congressional district, to
persuade the Congress to grant full
statehood to Washington, D.C.
Jackson’s supporters from around
the nation would be stimulated to
spring into action around this ques­
tion. In the present climate, not only
does D.C. not have full statehood,
some officials within the Bush ad­
ministration and members of Con­
