These are exactly the questions I would have to you (and other previous
DPLs) in case I might become elected. I might realise that I'm
absolutely naive about the options I have to change what you call the
visible side and get swamped by the things you are mentioning. I tried
to address your questions in my platform "What makes me afraid about
running for DPL".
I received some hints from previous DPLs and I trust I can rely on
your past experiences.
Kind regards
Andreas.
