Southwest Society Member, Carol Jacques named "Woman of the Year"

In our on-going efforts to highlight the exclusive world of politics in the "PEOPLE'S ENCLAVE OF MT. WASHINGTON" within CD14. We bring your attention to the "Mrs. Bill Clinton, err Rumble" of Northeast L.A., and Southwest Society member, Carol Jacques.

"Assistant Majority Leader Kevin de Leon is proud to announce his choice for the California State legislature "Woman of the Year", Mount Washington Association past-president Carol Jacques. (Amazing that a wife of the local Democratic boss would be consider).


The California State Assembly hosts the Woman of the Year ceremony annually to recognize outstanding women who have made significant contributions to communities across California. (By raising $$$ for my campaign).

Once an uprooted resident, "Una desterrada" of Chavez Ravine, Carol is now a powerful community voice for Los Angeles. Carol retired from Los Angeles County, in 2002, after 33 years of service. At retirement, she was the head of the Cival Service Advocacy Unit of the Probation Department. During her Career with the county, Carol was a founding member and co-chair of the Los Angeles County Health Alliance, a Founding member and the first elected woman president of Los Angeles County Chicano Employee's Association. (Uprooting things like museums in the Genes).

Carol was a former president and is the current Vice President of the City of Los Angeles El Pueblo Historic Monument Board of Commissioners. The 44-acre Historic site is the home to the world-famous Olvera Street, several museums and over 10,000 historic artifacts that attract over two miliion visitors a year. Carol is also a member of the Advisory Board of the East LA Community Corporation, a group that advocates for affordable housing.(Demotion and promotion of a dubious non-profit (Boyle Hotel) comes to mind.)

Her community involvement also includes being the Curator of the "Wish You Were Here" art show at the Bamboo Lane Gallery, in China Town as well the "Los Angel 2000" Latino Art Show presented at the Olvera Street Art Gallery for the Democratic Party National Convention of 2000. She has been a Board Member for the Arroyo Seco Neighborhood Council, President of the Mount Washington Association and past chair and member of the board of directors of the Art in the Park program in Los Angeles. (Resume padding as written by Eliot).

Carol resided in the Los Angeles community of Mount Washington with her husband Bill Rumble. (That is the "PEOPLE"S ENCLAVE OF MOUNT WASHINGTON" and Bill is the President of the Northeast Democrats. Sure this simple fact didn't sway award any.)

It is a great honor to announce Carol Jacques as my choice for the California Legislature's Woman of the Year. Carol is a stellar and inspiring individual who has been a true voice for our community and I am proud to name her "Woman of the Year" Assemblyman Kevin de Leon said." (No word whether this award ceremony will have private security and guest list. We leave the invites to Dalila Sotelo.)

To Eliot, well written!!

I gave de Leon campaign money - he didn't make me woman of the year.

Maybe you didn't sell out the Southwest Museum to the Autry.

Her resume forgot to mention that she faked a handicap so that she could garner sympathy and liberal creds, only to miraculously rise from her wheelchair shortly thereafter.

Oh, and "dumb as a cord of wood" is another qualification.

Crap, and I forgot "more abrasive than Fran Drescher drinking Comet."

Southwest Society? An organization centered around an empty, looted carcass of a museum?

Seems it's over, see no reason for a self congratulatorey party, when it appears you lost everything you were supposed to be overseeing...

Your comments read like more than a minor grudge against Carol and Eliot. I don't undertsand this attitude. Both of them serve the community as volunteers and have contributed greatly to the quality of life in Northeats Los Angeles and elksewhere. Yes, Carol is Bill's wife and yes, she did raise money for Kevon de Leon. But everything that she does is based on her desire to promote the politicians and programs that she perceives as being best for the community. Neither she nor Eliot seek or receive personal gain from their volunteerism. I am not alone in admiring all that they have accomplished for Northeast L.A. and Mt. Washington in particular. -Bob Squires
