WITH FRIENDS LIKE WILLIAM MARLIN WHO NEEDS ENEMIES.

Please allow me some space in your news paper editor. This is my first time writing because I am mad as hell. Most of my life I had voted for Mr. William Marlin, rest surely the National Alliance will never get my vote again. There was time they have done things I have forgiving, but the fact that William Marlin and his cronies can be so bold to try to table a motion for illegal immigrants children when we the real StMaarten people is also suffering is disrespectful. I recall the party S.P.M and then the S.P.A and the now N.A was suppose to be the party that fights for the native StMaarten people rights. And right now that party is fighting for illegal immigrants children. We were told by our parents DP was not for you. But I am shock to see how the table turns. I see the UP Party and the DP party block a motion against NA to seek special rights for the illegal immigrant's children. I was so happy, and I never taught that can happen. How can I ever vote for William Marlin and his cronies when he was suppose to do what UP Party and DP is doing. With friends like William Marlin who needs enemies. William Marlin is a man who likes StMaarten when he is out of power, but is against native StMaarten people when he is in power. Dr. Lloyd Richardson and Frans Richardson are mayor disappointments to me. Everybody in the National Alliance is afraid to stand up and remove William Marlin from that party and that party is right now irrelevant for most native StMaarten people. I am beginning to understand now why Patrick Illidge has left the party. William Marlin has now shown his true colors. I never taught I will say this; I was a person that bad talk Leopold James and his foundation. But now I can see clearly he is right. I was against that foundation of Leopold James, and I now see Miguel Arrindell join. I have to say those are exactly the kind of people StMaarten need who have the courage to stand and fight for us. It is time to send William Marlin home and retire him from his job. I am getting braver now and I am proud to say I am a real StMaartener and I am not afraid any more to speak up. The only politician I will ever vote for must be willing to help we the native StMaarten people first and for most. William Marlin fail the test intentionally and there for he is off my books. Whatever he says or does from now on to me does not matter. Because he is an untrustworthy man. As I said before, with friends like William Marlin who needs enemies?
