I, Jackie Jackson, want to serve you as your next Mayor of Richmond.

I am looking forward to engaging in a dialogue with you about how my platform of education, economic development and affordable housing can collectively commit to improving city government, enhancing the quality of life for all residents and creating model schools of excellence that equip our children with the tools needed to compete and succeed in the 21^st century.

This is my vision for this great City, but we don't have to wait for policy makers to design blueprints for a City of the Future; we can start Right Now. There are so many personal commitments you can make that will help reclaim our city.

I charge each Richmonder to make a personal commitment that will help to reclaim our City. Citizens of Richmond, young and old, north and south of the James are already pledging to RECLAIM RICHMOND by investing in sustainable products, reading to children in our elementary schools, volunteering at local non-profits and more. How will you RECLAIM RICHMOND?

Chronicle your journey by sending your pictures and thoughts on how you are reclaiming and will RECLAIM RICHMOND. Right Now.  Also, join me on my blog to discuss what we can do and hear from guest bloggers. You can even visit my MySpace page.

I look forward to embarking on this journey with you.

RECLAIMING RICHMOND Together,

PAID FOR AND AUTHORIZED BY JACKIE JACKSON FOR MAYOR
