randolph and george mason of virginia. let's talk about each of them. i learned to pronounce it gary, and i learned to pronounce it as gary-mandering not gerrymandering. gerrymandering is the practice of drawing voting districts so that they snake around in such funny shapes that they look like a salamander. gerry was famous in massachusetts for presiding over the construction of such a scrict, designed basically to ensure that your party wins to protect incumbents or if the state legislature is drawing up the seat to ensure their party retains power appeared so gerry created a district that looks like salamander. people ridiculed as a form of gerrymandering and that is what we have today. edmund randolph of virginia along with george mason, was not happy about the rights that were proposed. randolph and mason originally supported the strong central government and were supportive of the constitution, but during the course of the debates over the constitution, they both became concerned that it did not include a bill of rights and that a radical central

greatest books i put together, lecture notes over 20 years when i taught economics and ethics at randolph macon. basic thesis i went on the republican creed in virginia, basically american creed. since then i went a little 30,000-foot up in the air, and tend instead to the three pillars that have made our civilization the greatest i think the greatest country on earth. three pillars that hold the foundation, and include not surprisingly the judeo-christian tradition. i went to princeton seminary before economics. and studied hebrew for kicks. the judeo-christian tradition lead into the second, the rule of law, and then we did in 7076, also i don't know if by divine intervention or not, you can make up your own mind, travis smith, the founder of free economics, across the pond in england, scotland, doing economics and ethics as well. used to share a moral philosophy. a lot of great thinkers weaving together religion, philosophy, economics, political theology. in the past not so many doing it today. so that's kind of why these books in for my reading list. next was given to me by a 4-star g

cowen because with our leadership and you working with the community and the folks of the a phil randolph got the police accountability measure that is rear when we talk about police reform i fully support supervisor cowen because what you have a community driven police reform it is not politician driven or city hall not all those things that is the communities the people that you heard that we heard from today that testified that were walking the halls and so the communities has spoken so so i think that based on the conversation there is seems like consensus thanks to supervisor president london breed and others and the good folks to separate away to give the voters the chance to vote on police accountability and not part of a conversation about the public advocate it,too important to combine so whatever you want to use in terms of the verb what happened last week was unfair to the community and doing what you're doing will be happening a fully supporting the police accountability let's let the voters decide and respect the work and thank you very much for your leadership. >> thank you.
