We have a dream in CD 14 .....

 Only in CD 14 would a numerical rating of loyalty and influence come before the judge of character.
To paraphrase from Martin Luther Kings's "I Have a Dream" speech on the political reality in CD14: 
"I have a dream that my neighbors and friends will live in a council district where they will not be judge by a loyalty and influence number, but by the content of their communal character.
Great MLK Day to all as many gather to celebrate the life and legacy of Rev. Martin Luther King. On this day, this blogger wants to take the time to honor those within CD 14 who have been selfless in putting community before self, but sadly are judge by a councilman for their loyalty to him and influence. Lets hope that this post can serve as a teachable moment to the Boyle Heights native, that character within our council district is not predicated on political loyalty and the influence garner by these individuals, is a byproduct of their endeavors.
Name:     Councilman Huizar's (loyalty and influence score) ** as documented to the LA Times.
