I think I want to run for mayor of Los Angeles. We'll see.

I know Walter Moore is running for Mayor and he brings a lot to the table. And I would vote for him over Antonio. And David Hernandez is running as well. But with Antonio being such a little douchebag, more than ever...and CM LaBong not being able to treat a Constituent with the respect provided by the law, I'm thinking I want to do as much as I can to help improve the quality and productivity of this city...So I probably won't be able to stop myself from filing the paperwork to run for mayor, so that at least my name can be on the ballot.

You can't even file to run for mayor, or pick up the nominating petitions until November, so there is plenty of time to think about it.

And in possibly related matters...the response from people on the street from Downtown Los Angeles to Venice has been really, really mind-blowing. After being away for seven months, I figured the level of recognition may have dropped...but it seems like I burned enough rubber the previous year and a half to keep they heads ringing.

And a lot of shout outs on the streets from people wearing City Hall ID tags. They always give me the best stuff. And one of the Councilmember staffers passed me on the street today and said, "Zuma Dogg, you're my hero!" (Then I saw the CM staffer tag.) They said, "Don't say I said anything." (Oh my goodness was that sweet!)

So even though it would interfere with my Venice Beach vending and rigorous karaoke schedule...I probably won't be able to keep myself from signing up to run for mayor of L.A. I know I can easily beat Viagraosa...but I don't wanna run against Walter and David. But maybe it'll work out where I take votes away from Tony and help someone else win. We'll see. It's only the start of summer...I don't wanna think about Thanksgiving month yet.
