Thursday evening all of the candidates for sheriff were invited to attend a forum put on by the Bernalillo County Democratic Party at the UNM Law School. The idea was to get to meet the candidates and hear them speak. Two of the candidates did not show for the forum and sighted work issues. The other two were Pat Davis and Sisi Saenz-Miranda.
Pat Davis’ opening remarks:
Sisi Sanez-Miranda’s opening remarks:
Sisi had a few problems with the microphone but it was fixed by giving her the one being held by the moderator Peter St. Cyr. The voice you hear asking the questions for this event is Peter St. Cyr who worked for KKOB radio until lately when he moved to KOAT-TV. Congrats to Mr. St. Cyr on the new position.
Some of the questions you will hear asked during this event were directed at the fact that these two candidates have non transitional roles in society and I personally feel that any candidate should be judged on their skills and not their sex or gender. This is the 21st century and we need good people in positions of leadership in this state.
The rest of the questions will be posted on the YouTube channel for people to watch. The link is at the bottom of the page.

Quotes:
Senator Edward M. Kennedy (Teddy)
"For all those whose cares have been our concern, the work goes on, the cause endures, the hope still lives and the dream shall never die."
The O'Coilean (O'Collins)
'A great host with whom it is not fortunate to contend, the battle-trooped host of the O'Coileain."
Abraham Lincoln
"With malice toward none, with charity for all, with firmness in the right as God gives us to see the right, let us strive on to finish the work we are in, to bind up the nation's wounds, to care for him who shall have borne the battle and for his widow and his orphan, to do all which may achieve and cherish a just and lasting peace among ourselves and with all nations."
From NPR Radio
"Rosa sat so Martin could walk.
Martin walked so Obama could run.
Obama ran so our children can fly!"
Ralph Waldo Emerson
"I awoke this morning with devout thanksgiving for my friends, the old and the new."

"Friendship is loving someone no matter what is in their past. It is accepting the fact that they are human and that they have made their share of mistakes over a life time. Trust is being able to tell your friend the most private secret knowing that they will not judge you. A life is not lived well without that one true and trusted friendship."
Mary Harris "Mother" Jones
"My job is to comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable"
Albert Einstein
"Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind."
Will Rogers
"I don't belong to an organized party--I'm a democrat."
President John F. Kennedy, Democrat
“If by a ‘liberal’ they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people—their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, and their civil liberties—someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad, if that is what they mean by a ‘Liberal,’ then I’m proud to say I’m a ‘Liberal.’”
Martin Luther King Jr.
"Faith is taking the first step, even when you don't see the whole staircase."
Lora O'Brien
"All I can do is share one person's experiences on her own path, not tell you how to walk yours. If a guru is what you are looking for, find another! If I am a teacher, it is because I am already walking the path that you, Dear Reader, may wish to be on. Although each of us must make our own way, I can put up signs at least, and make the way slightly less hazardous for those who wish to walk a similar path."
C. S. Lewis
"Affection is responsible for nine-tenths of whatever solid and durable happiness there is in our lives."
