    Very inspiring story. I hope he finds the guidance and wisdom he needs to be successful. I hope other Mayors in Mississippi will step up and mentor him. As long as his desire is to do the right thing, I think he'll be okay.

    "Inspiring." That's an interesting take. If allowed but one word to describe this story, I'm curious: how many others would choose the word "inspiring?"

    Jay I guess you would need inspiration to want to be anything in a community of 220.

Please keep it clean and reasonably civil. "Public figures" are fair game, consistent with the "actual malice" exception. I suggest you Google both terms before you go off half-cocked.
