Every generation there comes along a natural politician of uncommon moral valor and intelligence; that politician being Assemblyman Nathan Fletcher. Fletcher’s strength of emotional intelligence transcends his overall persona of a man of the people. He reminds one of the high school kids who would defend a bullied fellow student. I believe that if Nathan Fletcher hits the stump for congressional candidate Scott Peters in earnest, current Rep. Brian Bilbray will be relegated to surfing the waters of Imperial Beach.
