Welcome to the fray.

Hello all,

My name is James Croft. I am a twenty-three year-old graduate student in the University of North Florida's Masters in Public Administration program. I am a registered democrat, a self-professed social liberal, fiscal conservative and somewhat intelligent person. I have my opinions like everyone else, and I endeavor to listen to the thoughts and opinions of others.

I'm starting this blog to provide an outlet for locals to write and express their viewpoints on local issues important to them, get the word out about events and causes and provide an alternative information source to our area. I did not start this blog to push my political beliefs and opinions onto others. That would be wrong. In fact I cordially invite anyone that wants to contribute to this blog to contact me. Whether you are Republican, Democrat, Independent, Socialist, Communist or what-have-you we all have a right to express our opinions.

If you are interested please contact me at JPCroftIII@gmail.com and we will set up a blogger account to get you started. This is a newborn operation, and I expect many changes in the future as the blog grows. I hope you will be a part of it.

Thanks,

James Croft
