The white mayors aren't beholden to the whims of a voting bloc largely dependent on public assistance that largely hates the police.

Mayors who identify with an ethnic classification before identifying with a need to cut crime and make the city livable will never cut it.

If you're referring to his Italian heritage, tell that to the members of the Mafia that he vigorously prosecuted.

I pretty sure Sharpe James used his pigmentation to his political advantage and what good did that do for anyone other than the James family?

I know hundreds of black and Latino cops who arrest black and Latino criminals every day. What's your point?

Didn't know Sharpe James was Mayor of Newark.
