Bud Chiles is an honest person who seems to do what he says he is going to do with integrity that is missing in so many of the days politicians. Our education system is definitely broken when seniors graduating from high school cannot read or write, our younger children are being taught to test…not to learn. Maybe if Bud Chiles were to run for office we would see a difference. He sees the full picture and the Legislature is not going to say Buds right until he runs for office and becomes one of them. Then the question is….can he stay Bud Chiles…maybe so…his father stayed true to himself. Democrats and Republicans would welcome you as a leader in this State.
