Gov. John P. deJongh, Jr.
If anyone still has questions about the state of this Administration then they weren’t paying attention last night.
There is now documented, irrefutable evidence of perjury, fraud, conflict of interest, obstruction of justice – we could (and will in later articles) go on. But for now, there is only one question.

More than half of the contributions Delegate to Congress Donna Christensen has received in the current election cycle are linked to a Washington contractor who is the subject of a federal inquiry.
According to an article today in the Washington Post, Christensen has received at least $37,000 from contractor Jeffrey Thompson, who is suspected of using “straw” or phantom donors to evade contribution limits that are set for candidates running for office. His operations have drawn the attention of Federal authorities.
According to the article, Thompson’s accounting firm Thompson, Cobb, Brazilio and Associates, has 189 contracts with the federal government, worth $17.1 million. The company has done some business in the Virgin Islands, auditing grant funds awarded by the U.S. Department of Education and the Federal Highway Administration. TCBA recently advertised for an accounting position based in Saint Thomas, Virgin Islands.
Recently, Christensen has urged the Federal Election Commission to investigate the election system of the Virgin Islands, citing public discontent with the way the Board of Elections in operating. Perhaps this current development will hasten their acceptance of her request.
As many of you heard recently, CIF President Michael Springer, at left, delivered the first in a series of radio announcements that will target specific issues and offer analysis on our most pressing concerns.
The feedback on the comments was extremely positive, so CIF will sponsor then as often as possible, and we thank those of you who have already donated! But airtime costs money and we're seeking your help.

More people should go look for their voter’s registration card, but until the community as a whole feels safe, they ain’t gonna register to vote for fear of being called to jury duty. I think we need to change the jury duty pool, and pull from the VI “driving license” records…just a thought…
Here’s a big funny…the gov got the cruiseships back here to STX, but how did he pull that off? Well, he gave them free porting, and who overseas that port?, well that would be David Mapp, yes. And where does David Mapp live?, why it’s aroung the corner from his brother’s address in Florida…can we please get some clarification on this? Do both the Mapps live in Florida, yet maintain a VI address so they can operate under VI confusionary laws? I am confused, somebody please clear it up for me? Mapp’s not a bad guy, I might even support him, but I need some questions answered first…
Yes, what about Nelson? Is he a grasroots candidate? What is his platform? I hear he has said he is running, but I haven’t yet heard his campaign. Just from watching him on LEGIT, I can see he is passionate with his legislative agendas, but where does he stand as a future Governor?
Anyone have any insight?
So far we have DeJongh (blah), Mapp (honest?), and Nelson (what’s his platform?) Who else? They need to come out of the woodwork now, before we don’t realize what our choices really are
Donastorg is the best we have .. Mapp is HISTORY .. he backed down from the Schneider administration, and showed no respect he was so rude … he went from being rude during the storm .. Mapp aint being nothing but a wanna be in my eyes.. We here on stt aint blind to see who he really is . Would rather cast a vote for Positive .
Mapp is dishonest. He has broken the law before and was removed by the Senate for his fraudulent act.
Since then he has redeemed himself and became Lt Governor of the VI.
He served honorably and there is no cloud over his service as Lt. Governor. He is the kind of person we need at the top spot. He is honest, has integrity, and expects us to perform to our best abilities. He is respect by people in high places outside this territory and that is important when we have to appear in Washington.
Yeah some of you lazy people want to do nothing from 8-5 and walk out with a paycheck. We need accountability and transparency. MAPP 2010.
No way , Anybody but Mapp.
No way, Anybody but de Jongh!
Donastorg 2010!
MAPP 2010
Did someone say Mapp is transparent and accountable? Which Mapp are we speaking of? Time is growing rather short. The Governor will beat Mapp easy. Mapp may not even make it to the starting line. The Governor already told his troops he has something for Mapp. A surprise is coming….so tell Mapp get ready to hire an attorney.
Mapp is a dead horse … Mapp has so much baggage.
ANYONE BUT DEWOLF IN 2010.
Let’s have fun. We could all support our choice by being pleasant. I say, deGreat again in 2010!
I spoke with Donastorg today and I was informed that the campaign will soon start!!!!!! Everything that he told us about prosser came to pass and the same applies for the present
administration. I went up on demmansay and saw the doucements on
the lottery situation What a damm shame.
DONASTORG IS OUR ONLY HOPE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PLEASE DON’T MAKE ME LAUGH! WE HAVE PASSED THE STAGE OF FUN THIS IS SERIOUS! IT NOT FUN WHEN SOME ARE LIVING HIGH ON THE HOG
AND OTHERS CAM MAKE ENDS MEET!
Please make me laugh. It would be fun to see how Foncie debates issues and answer critical questions.The political tactics of the past do not work today. Dirty politics do not help to elect a candidate. Any moron can insult and call the opponent nasty names. Does he have any skills besides making false allegations and spreading propaganda? Foncie makes Mapp look like a diplomat, and I am not a Mapp supporter. Mapp might not be the most honest candidate, but he is not as slow as Foncie. Which is worst, a dishonest& dumb governor or a dishonest & intelligent governor? Two poor choices:Mapp or Foncie.I prefer Mapp!
I just saw the CIF Poll increasing in enlightenment! It seems to be a good indication as to the best choice for our current gov to make: don’t bother, we have had enough.
Dont stop the carnival has a point. If the current poll is a foreshadowing of what to come by Election Day, Governor deJongh is as good as gone!
Who do you think spearheaded the redevelopment of Frederiksted into the beautiful town that it is now and put it back on the map in a positive light. It was Kenneth Mapp. MAPP 2010
