Now for my personal data you can click on the Smart Voter's guide (http://www.smartvoter.org) for my Biography and other issues such as when I ran for S.W.S.B. and as a Write-In Candidate for the 79th Distric Election of 2004.

Issues I'd like to Address Here:

1. Personal information, such as my age, is not required to be in the Mayor's Office.

2. My Ethnicity, my Mexican heritage, etc., are not required for the Mayor's office since I am a U.S. Citizen.

3. My Cultural relevance to the City of Chula Vista is that I raised my family in the 91913 zip code, near Southwestern College. I had the American Dream home: a two story, six bedroom, four bathroom, fireplace, with a mini- Olympic pool and jacuzzi. It was the only home with an intercom in it, and it was next to Bonita Vista High School.
