		<description>ALAN J GERSON -  the best choice for solving the prevailing issues like overcrowded schools, massive budget cuts, high unemployment rates, and unprecedented cuts to our social services.
So on September 15th when you march to polling station please vote for the humble Alan J Gerson to continue his reform works for a cleaner, greener, safer New York City.

		<description>If they have already decided to extend the term limits, then what will a referendum do except political cover?  They already understand that a clear majority of new yorkers have and do approve of extending, if not abolishing, term limits, so why not take a stand and vote on it now?  I just don&#039;t believe that a referendum will add much more to the debate that the public debate going on already hasn&#039;t.</description>

		<description>I think the Brewer, Gerson, Yassky proposal is a good idea for people like me who dislike term limits but hate the dishonest end-run Ms. 
Quinn and Mr. Bloomberg have tried to force on us. With their three votes and the 23 opposed to the Mayor&#039;s plan, a council majority of 26 could force a referendum. Which Council member will go on record opposing the chance for people to vote on this issue?</description>
