===================

As the city of Berkeley proposes new district lines ahead of the 2012 election, there is a unchallenged plan to give District 7 to the students so the UC population can have total political, social and economic control over a substantial portion of the city of Berkeley.

Kriss Worthington, who was once a Green Party member but has become a staunch Obama Democrat, is quoted as saying: "We are trying to figure out how to expand the student majority in District 7."

Since there are no plans for more housing construction in District 7, the only way to increase the student majority would be to remove the non-student population from their housing and replace tenants with students.

Worthington will be targeting the poor, the disabled, and the elderly - while not offering them any alternative for housing elsewhere.

The city council has been having many meetings with ASUC, but has held no meetings with the non-student population about the gifting of district 7 to the UC Regents and Students.
