Mr. Olsen and the Third District of Prince George's County were
denied a chance once again to chair the County Council, something it has not done for twenty years or more. It sure looks like the
3rd District is taken advantage of in the politics of the petty. Someday if the
politics of sectionalism continues we should not be surprised to see District 3
seek to remove itself to a more accepting county taking the university with
it. And if District 1 decided to join a succession movement it would result in a major removal of federal presence
mostly ignored in the present squabbling milieu of our power elites. Who knows, District
4 might want to leave also taking the second largest city in Maryland with it,
allowing the remaining cliques full play with their diminished resources. With National Harbor already marketing itself
as part of Old Town Alexandria and Northern Virginia, how long before other
sections throw in the towel and give up on the small centers of smaller vision?
