I don’t understand how Mr. Camara could have thought this would communicate anything but a “casual” attitude about the endorsement he seeks from the Jews of Crown Heights!

Regardless of how much class he oozes for lack of a better term. A gentleman always wears a suit, especially in matters of politics, and representation.
He is the only one in the room beside the camera man to not wear a suit.
on that note, We still LOVE Yossi…Keep it up!

Nice to see that everyone is getting along

Do NOT vote for NY State Comptroller Tom DiNapoli!! He invests a lot of the NY pension fund money in ARAB Countries and is no friend of the Jews. It is embarrassing that our community leaders can endorse a man like this. He is incompetent and a fool. Even Mayor Bloomberg (who isn’t mixing into NY political races) has endorsed the other candidate : Republican Harry Wilson.

Chanina and his assistant Eli Slavin know all the pols and the camera angles. He will remain our powerful entry to Albany, Washington, and City Hall. Nobody in Anash can equal his political prowess and knowledge. Next the White House!

Yossi does a great job, by his demeanor, smarts and language.

Besides he, looks great.

Thank you Chanina Sperlin!

What have they done for us so far?

Asking for Support

Depressed neighborhoods still look depressed even after 50 years of politicians asking for our support. Can anyone mention 3 neighborhoods, that have gone from depressed to thriving due to GOV help?

Harlem is still Harlem (except for the section where private enterprise took over). Brownsville is still brownsville. Crown Heights is Still CH.

Maybe they keep us down, so we can beg for more; and we keep thinking they will actually help!
