You are also currently running for political office, and an article that may or may not have been written by you has been posted this week at Jeremy Karpen that appears, in its present form, ostensibly to be in support of that campaign.

Kudpung, I am not familiar with the source of this post. It appeared in my google feed this afternoon and I noted that my age was incorrectly reported. As I have no interest in appearing younger than I am, I changed it. I also noted that it was incorrect to refer to me as a 'Minnesotan' as I have lived in Chicago for more than 6 years. Under no circumstances would I include this information in a post about myself in the middle of my campaign. Thank you for your concern that I 'exercise great caution.' However, I do believe that I did so. I did not change the information in the post in any manner that altered the meaning other than to correct my age. I do not appreciate your insinuations. 99.4.104.66 (talk) 03:41, 31 October 2010 (UTC)
