TAKE US BRING US INTO LA MESA FOR ANY WAY THAT REALLY LIVES IN THE COUNTY THAT HAS NEVER EVER BEEN TO LA MESA BEFORE. WHAT IS IT? >> WE'RE 9 SQUARE MILES AND WEAR VERY UNIQUE. WE HAVE A RULE OR AREAS AND WE HAVE. >> AREAS, YOU KNOW, STREETS THAT ARE VERY MAP DOWN AND ALL SORTS OF DIFFERENT HOMES. AND WE HAVE HILLS AND WE HAVE FLAT AREAS.

SO I WAS ON THE CITY COUNCIL FIRST. AND THEN WHEN I WAS ELECTED MAYOR, THE DAY I WAS ELECTED, OF COURSE, THE CHILDREN CONGRATULATED ME. THE NEXT QUESTION WAS, IS THERE A VOCABULARY QUESTIONS? FIRST, A QUICK WAS THIS WEEK, HONEST GUY. SO SO, YES, IT DOES HAVE SOME CACHET TO THEM. KIDS ARE VERY HUMBLING, WHICH IS A GOOD THING BECAUSE I THINK PEOPLE IN POLITICS NEED TO BE HUMBLE. SO THAT DEFINITELY HAPPENS. BUT I DO HAVE PARENTS THAT WOULD COME AND SAY MY DAUGHTER, MY 4TH GRADERS OF THE YEAR, THE ME AND I NO, THAT'S NOT TRUE. SO BUT IT DID CONNECT ME TO THE COMMUNITY. THERE ARE 1100 KIDS IN MY SCHOOL. AND THERE WERE LOTS OF QUESTIONS ABOUT CITY QUESTIONS. AND THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO DO IN LOCAL POLITICS TO BE A CONDUIT TO THE THAT YOU TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE POLITICS EVERY NIGHT. THERE'S SO MUCH THAT'S GOOD HERE. BUT IT'S YOU KNOW, HAD MOMENTS HERE IN LA SEVERAL YEARS SINCE THE RIOTS THAT THAT HAPPENED HERE. SO HOW DID THAT CHANGE THE CITY? >> WELL, I THINK IS WHAT IT DID WAS IT SHOWED THAT THE PEOPLE OF MESA CARE ABOUT THEIR CITY BECAUSE THE NEXT MORNING BY 5 O'CLOCK IN THE MORNING, THERE WERE HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE HERE CLEANUP AND THEY THEY WEREN'T POINTING FINGERS. THEY JUST WANTED TO MAKE THE CITY HALL AGAIN. THEY WANTED TO SHOW EVERYBODY HOW MUCH THEY CARED ABOUT EACH OTHER. AND SO WHEN YOU COME TO LA MESA. >> IT IS THE PEOPLE THAT YOU NOTICE THAT THEY'RE CARRYING. THEY'RE KIND. THEY'RE WELCOMING. YOU GO INTO STORES, NO, SAY HELLO TO YOU WELCOME YOU TO LA MESA AND SO THAT DEMONSTRATED TO ME THE REALLY THE HEART OF THE CITY. AND I KNOW THAT'S BEEN USED A LOT DIFFERENT CITIES AND THEY SAY, IT MAKES US STRONG, BUT IT REALLY DID HAPPEN. IT DID SHOW THAT THE PEOPLE ARE THE STRENGTH OF THE CITY. YEAH. AND I DO REMEMBER THAT VERY SPECIFICALLY HOW THE NEXT VERY NEXT DAY EVERYBODY WAS OUT CLEANING. >> AND HELPING OUT, WHICH IS REALLY, REALLY HELP START SUNDAY'S AT 6.
