Trust me—you really don’t know what you’re missing.
Remember the Heroes & Villains
This section is dedicated to preserving the names of bureaucratic
wrong-doers, so that we may keep them from gaining positions of greater power in
the future, no matter how long ago their mistakes were made.
It is also dedicated to preserving the names of public heros;those
who stand up to the establishment and fight for fairness—no matter what
the consequences to their careers may be.
Heroes
- Judge Charles E. Burton
- A Great American. The judge of the Palm Beach County
Canvassing Board who established fair and sensible rules for hand counting
ballots—and gave the nation an example of how a judge should rise above
emotions and personal prejudice. Please consider sending a short note to
Judge Burton, if you agree with these sentiments. Here is the
letter Bill Wattenburg sent.
