What We Need Is a Good Old Fashioned Debate!

So, this thread has been created to provide a space for the two contenders for County Exec to debate each other. No moderators. No canned qurestions from the "League of Women Voters." Just a good old fashioned back and forth debate between the two candidates. No heckling allowed. Only candidates may post here.

Normally, I'd flip a coin to see who gets to go first, but the simpler solution is to let "first come" be "first served." That is, whichever candidate posts their opening remarks first, gets to go first. Incumbent Vanzant and challenger Gordon, the stage is set... and we're all waiting to hear from you!
