Former WSU Cougar and Seattle Super Sonic Center James Donaldson has announced his candidacy for Mayor of Seattle. The 7 foot plus Donaldson has been running a physical therapy business in Mill Creek for almost 20 years. Current Mayor Greg Nickels has drawn fire for his handling of Seattle's recent snowfall. Nickels is finishing his second term.
Although we don't have a "Governator" like California, this state has elected politicians with sports backgrounds, Congressman Norm Dicks played linebacker for the Washington Huskies and the late John Cherberg was a former Husky football coach who served as Lieutenant Governor.

Mr. Donaldson also had the high honor and distinct privilige of having his piture taken with me 27
years ago.
When I attended Lenny Wilkens baketball camp on the campus of the lutheran bible institute we were told we would have our pictures taken with Seattle All Star Jack Sikma, but on picture day Sikma couldn't be their so Mr. Donaldson was nice enough to take his place
