Brian Tam here, let me tell you my campaign plan.
00:05.5
00:10.3
Voters have short memories, so this will work.
00:10.4
00:15.2
I'm going to tell voters I'm against new taxes
00:15.3
00:20.1
And ignore the fact I tried to raise taxes 40%!
00:29.9
00:35.4
And then....I'll call myself a "Conservative"
00:40.6
00:44.4
Even though I doubled spending on the BOC,
00:44.5
00:48.5
increased debt over 500%,
00:48.6
00:51.6
and gave myself a 160% pay raise!
00:51.7
00:53.8
I'll call myself a "Conservative"
00:58.0
01:01.0
And put signs on every corner around town.
01:02.0
01:05.1
It will be easy; all the developers owe me favors
01:05.2
01:09.5
I gave them 16,000 apartment and condo units, they owe me!
01:12.2
01:15.6
Then...I'll put "No New City" on my signs...
01:15.7
01:18.7
Even though I am the reason people want a new city!
01:22.0
01:25.6
If anyone dare speak against me...
01:25.7
01:28.5
I'll name them in a flyer and send it around the County!
01:33.1
01:36.2
You know who else owes me favors?
01:36.3
01:38.3
Career politicians. I know a lot of them in Fulton County.
01:39.8
01:43.2
Nobody here will endorse me. So I'll call Fulton County leaders "Local Leaders"
01:43.3
01:47.5
And put them on my campaign flyer!
01:48.3
01:53.0
That will give me credibility. Fulton County is "local".
01:56.2
01:59.5
When people complain about my negative campaign
01:59.6
02:02.8
I'll do what I always do, blame someone else.
02:09.5
02:12.1
I blamed other people for my high density zonings.
02:14.3
02:16.4
I blame other people for the traffic.
02:16.5
02:18.5
I blame other people for the clear cutting.
02:21.5
02:23.8
I blame other people for school crowding.
02:23.9
02:26.0
I blame other people for the debt.
02:26.1
02:27.3
People will still vote for me.
02:28.0
02:29.6
Moderator: Even Republicans?
02:29.7
02:31.7
Even Republicans!
02:37.2
02:41.2
I can't believe this might actually work!
02:50.9
02:54.0
Remember the Apartments at The Collection?
02:55.0
02:58.2
Moderator: Didn't you add them to the agenda?
02:59.0
03:03.8
Yes, and I voted to send them to a public hearing.
03:03.9
03:08.1
When they became unpopular, I suddenly recused.
03:08.8
03:13.6
That way I didn't have to vote.
03:16.9
03:22.5
Now I tell people I "never voted for them"
03:23.5
03:27.0
I started the whole process, then recused!
03:30.9
03:34.2
Pretty good, huh? No problem, voters have short memories.
