Letter: Candidate owes voters answers on school issues

To the editor:

I "Googled" the name of Jonathan Ring, the candidate for Rockport School Committee in the town election on May 3. What came up was a notice posted by an organization called KnowThyNeighbor.org.

Dated May 6, 2010, the headline was "Anti-gay running for School Committee in Rockport."

If Mr. Ring wins, he will sit on the committee that sets school policies on such matters as sex education, guidance, personnel, and the like.

Now, I don't know Jonathan Ring, but because this accusation is out there, it would seem only fair to Mr. Ring and the voters of Rockport to give Mr. Ring a chance to explain his views and tell us what policies he would advocate for in our schools.

1. He'd probably do better in Rockport Maine, but then again
anyone running against that rights of other Americans, probably shouldn't run at all.
