[FONT=‘Arial Unicode MS’]A quiet revolution has taken place in the power structure in Dallas. It has been so long in the making and so subtle in its emergence has gone almost unnoticed till now. The reasons for it are understandable given what has gone on in American cities and in businesses in the last two decades. The topic being discussed here is the rise of the lawyer at the power center of the city. A casual study of the leadership of any charity or civic venture in Dallas will have a lawyer at or near the top of its positions. The ongoing Dallas mayor campaign is also not an exception. One strong contender in this campaign is Darrell Jordan, with the solid backup of rich experiences as a leading lawyer. Jordan attracted worldwide attention when he headed up the Cotton Bowl Committee. Jordan also made headlines when arguing before the Supreme Court in Favor of IOLTA – an interest-bearing trust fund used to pay legal fees of Texas’ poorest defendants.

[FONT=‘Arial Unicode MS’]Following the almost one year-long activity of the Dallas mayor campaign, on May 12 2007, the citizens of Dallas will face the difficult task of selecting a mayor from the multitude of candidates who are fiercely contesting for the powerful position of the Mayor of the City of Dallas. The present mayor, Laura Miller, has already proved her mettle as a thoughtful leader in helping broker a compromise on the Wright amendment. Over the years, her difficulty in building coalitions had been the most frequent criticism against her. However, between the November 2006 bond program and the Wright amendment, she has outshined all others as a problem solver who is getting things done.

[FONT=‘Arial Unicode MS’]At this election, Laura Miller, however, faces tough opponents from all walks of life. It will take just more than great campaigning and good luck for Laura Miller to maintain her position this time too.
