So You Want to Be Nashville's Next Mayor...

Who will be Nashville's next Mayor?  10 candidates are running and in the interest of fairness I generally ask each candidate not just the most popular to give their thoughts and opinions on how they would run this city.  The citizens get to hear from candidates that are overlooked by local TV stations because they are not in the top tier.  So in the name of fairness we hear from all of them, listeners can call in and ask a question if they feel compelled.  Let the voters decide.  

First one up is Julia Clark Johnson. The 2nd candidate didn't show up for his allotted time.
