Is It "Business", or "Envy" "Hitman"?
Our organization supported Ruben Diaz in February of 2009. As Mr Press, Vice Chair of 100 Democrats says at a recent Ben Franklin (81st Assembly) club meeting, 100 Democrats (in the 78th) and NWB Democrats (in the 80th) 'postered" for his special election ,and shortly thereafter, gathered signatures for Mr Diaz in June.
So, why does "Hitman" John DeSio, once a mild manner reporter with The Riverdale Review, now a "Senior Spokesperson" for Boro President Ruben Diaz Jr decide to ask "The Bronx News" newspaper to kill our longstanding community article "North Bronx Thinktank"-unless its personal. We CANT BELIEVE Mr Diaz ordered this. and if we are right-------should he be fit for duty.......or fit right.....into the City Conflicts of Interest Board?....Hmmm...I think I found an item on next weeks agenda!

Our "Birth"

About Us
We are a coalition of communities in The Fordham, Kingsbrifge, Bedford Park, Kingsbridge Heights, Norwood & Van Courtlandt neighborhoods of The Bronx who have been "left out" of the political process after three decades of political gerrymanding and re-districing".
We are long standing residents, business owners, community activists and former public officals that have improved our neighborhood"quality of life" for over four (4) decades.
At one time, our neighborhoods had, for example: One (1) State Assemblyperson, per collection of neighborhoods. . In 2009, Fordham, for example, has two (2) Assemblypeople Bedford Park and Norwood have two and Mosholu has three (3). This 'slicing and dicing of neighborgood effect" has trickled down and resulted in mis-City Council representation and created a 25 year political void.
Our purpose is to provide "neighborhood advocacy" by having more of a "political voice"-to provide community; access, information, and leadership to expand the value of our North Bronx Neighborhoods so we can control our own political destiny and not leave it up to "community and political strangers". Town Hall meetings, Public Debates and this blog are just some tools to provide our voice

The John DeSio Files-From Riverdale Reporter to Boro President Hitman
So, how did John Desio, once a hard working independent political reporter with a flavor against the OLD Bronx Democratic Party-now work with Borough President Ruben Diaz Jr-part of the old guard:
By being the first-Thats How!
Underneath, in 2009, could be THE FIRST TIME John made his approrch for this "possible position". John covers Ruben Sr-endorsing his son Ruben Jr for Boro President
And just a few months later-JOHNNY HAS A NEW JOB----and even his reporter friends do not believe it. Congrats John!.
