(34,136 posts)I've met him only long enough to shake his hand, but I've read about his career in Tallahassee politics for years.
I hope he decides to move his political ambitions higher. We need men like him in the Florida legislature, working their way to even higher offices!
Thank you, Andrew Gillum, for demonstrating what a great place Tallahassee and Leon County can be by being inclusive and choosing the path of love over the pit of hate.
ETA: For those who would like to know more about Andrew Gillum, here is his bio page at the Talgov site:
http://www.talgov.com/commission/commission-officials-gillum.aspx
He was 23 when he was first elected to office in 2003. This is his third time around as mayor, having been elected mayor pro tem in 2004, again in 2008, and yet again in 2012!
This is a man worth keeping an eye on!
