A report by Dallas urban planner Antonio Di Mambro sets the agenda for an endorsement of the city's next mayor.
"Noted urban planner Antonio Di Mambro presented a crucial point in his recent "Global City" report for this newspaper: The health of the metroplex lies in the ability of the disparate communities that make up this nearly 5 million-person area to work together on common goals. ... As Mr. Di Mambro says, if the Dallas-Fort Worth region fails to move together, it will not realize its potential as a major center in American life. The choice is ours."
