News Flash: Legendary investor Warren Buffett reports he will "invest in Goldman"

Goldman for Mayor - September 24th - For Immediate Release

Richmond Times Dispatch is reporting this morning that legendary finance expert Warren Buffett "to invest $5 Billion in Goldman."

(Richmond): Paul Goldman, candidate for Mayor, issued the following statement this morning:

"For myself and of course Mr. Sachs along with the entire Goldman Sachs Group Inc, I want to thank Warren baby for recognizing proven performance and credentials.

$5 extra large is cool Mr. B. It will make for one heck of a campaign finance report next month.

The Buffett man can add. So with (1) Governor Kaine saying we face a 3 billion deficit at the state level, with (2) Uncle Sugar in D.C. facing a trillion - that's 333 times the size of the state deficit! - in debt explosion due to the need to save capitalism from the capitalists, and (3) the fiscally irresponsible Wilder-Pantele regime this past year having created a deficit-ridden, spending-splurge fiscal mess here in the River City that still defies a budget solution 3 months into the new fiscal year,
Mr. B. knew he had to find a someone who understood the 1, 2, & 3 of it all.

So he turned to Goldy, fearing otherwise that he and Richmond would get Sacked.

The Sage of Omaha knows I have been praise by several Governors for giving them no-nonsense and sound fiscal advice that helped them win national acclaim for how they dealt, in a fiscally responsible way, with serious fiscal problems inherited upon taking office.

And the next Mayor of Richmond is going to inherit a fiscal mess.

Mr. B. knows that I am the only candidate for Mayor with the proven record of fiscal acumen and graduate training in public finance to get us out of this growing financial hole.

Later today, I will again try to get the media of Richmond - I have been trying now since February - to finally focus on the fiscal mess here in Richmond.

Even Mr. Pantele has now been forced to concede that he has voted for a series of budgets that has given Richmond the most bloated and inefficient local government in Virginia, the amount of waste he conceded last night to be at least 30 million and likely close to twice that."

I attended Forum I last night and out of all 5 mayoral candidates, Paul Goldman is the only one that stood out! He is a true independent who has a proven record to pull Richmond out of it's outdated past and put it on a path to have a thriving future. The other candidates' answers were pure political soup... and I've had my fill. Paul Goldman stuck with the agenda (the downtown master plan) and sugar coated nothing. Let's elect the man who gave us the power to elect!
