[QUOTE="804brown, post: 888275, member: 29553"] I am not one of the three but it is public knowledge that Tim and Jim were there everyday. I know Ron ran several times just like the Row B guys and then it finally happened. My point was Tony was already rejected (as well as Angelo and John) by the membership, Ron Carey was never rejected by local 804 members!! If Ron was still here you better beleive he would be endorsing Sandy Pope. He endorsed Tom L all three times as well as TDU. Ron did bring Sandy to Washington because she was and is a smart, unflinching union activist. Did Ron bring Howie or TonyD or anybody from the local with him to Washington?? No!! I do know that he brought Tim S with him from the rank and file as an organizer and Jim R from the rank and file on the contract committee. Sandy Pope is not just anyone. She is a long time (33 years) Teamster who started as a hauler in Cleveland, Ohio. Sandy stands up for justice no matter where she is. She (not "anyone") got noticed by Ron in the 90s and was brought to Washington to help. She (not "anyone") was asked by Tom L to run as his Secretary Treasurer in 2006. She (not "anyone") teaches labor law at Cornell. She (not "anyone") had the balls to put her name out there to run when no one else would!! She has a great resume to run on , Hoffa doesnt !!
