This endorsement is something that brings with it great responsibility, and if elected mayor, I&#8217;ll make sure my administration reflects my conservative values to help make our city great once again.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;ve always said that you can tell a lot about a society by how it treats those most in need &#8211; the helpless, the innocent,&#8221; he added. &#8220;Children not yet born belong in that category, which is why I value this endorsement so much.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Last week, Doden participated in a debate sponsored by the Allen Country Right to Life. His responses in that debate, combined with responses to a survey administered by the organization, earned him its endorsement.<\/p>\n<p>To date, Doden remains the only Republican mayoral candidate with a strategic plan for creating and retaining jobs and growing Fort Wayne&#8217;s economy. He&#8217;s shared specific components of that plan over the past several months. Most recently, he discussed his approach to stemming the city&#8217;s home-foreclosure problems. Prior to that, he shared his vision for strengthening Fort Wayne&#8217;s education system and partnerships; announced his plans to promote a culture of productivity and customer service as mayor; market Fort Wayne in a targeted and aggressive campaign; leverage a portion of the light-lease fund to attract capital projects that will create jobs in Fort Wayne, as well as attract and retain a talented workforce; and attract 1,000 entrepreneurs to Fort Wayne.<\/p>\n<p>More information, as well as the new commercial, is available at <span class=\"removed_link\" title=\"https:\/\/www.aroundfortwayne.com\/main\/weblinksmenu\/89-political-campaigns-2011\/343-doden-eric\">ericdoden.com<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>About Eric Doden<\/strong><br \/>\nFor the past two-plus years, Doden has served as the director of investments at Ambassador Enterprises, a Fort Wayne-based consulting, investment and private equity firm.
