Bernard Parks

Bernard Parks is next up on the docket for mayoral consideration. I can honestly say he's a distinguished looking man. If Hollywood were making a movie about an LA mayor, he could play the part 'cause he looks so good. But that's the problem with Parks, he can only play the part if someone else is feeding him all the good lines. There's nothing in Parks professional history, especially as head of the LAPD, that distinguishes him as a leader. In fact, he made a complete mess of the LAPD and now he wants to focus his "strengths" on the city? Uh, please no. Although this article by City Beat tries to show he has turned himself into a model pol since he was fired as police chief. His run for mayor is a personal vendetta against Hahn for having him replaced as Chief of Police with William Bratton. Politics is much too personal for Parks. So ixnay on arkspay.
