I didnt like Hubbard crap cereals and religious. Mayors should be secular.
Banks is the man for super city mayor but I doubt NZ could ever afford Olympic games.

1114845 2010-07-01 01:54:00 Stupid idea NZ just can't afford to do it. The olympics have got too large and would be better if it was just for personal sports and not team sports, after all it is based on one man's run in Greece. mikebartnz (21)

Rising above the petty cash squabbles (pun intended), the punters can perceive a smallish, dapper, be-spectacled man of great wisdom and vision. Whom better to lead the flock to the promised land of a World City?

And then, when the dust settles, and after the first Mayor of Greater Auckland is installed, comes the Opening of The Books. Whereupon all and sundry will be dismayed and shocked to learn we couldn't in a month of Sundays ever hope to afford the 2020 Olympics. To the rescue then comes our new Mayor in a newly adopted guise of Shining Knight, blaming some unforeseen major discrepancy in the finances of the collective councils.

No that was the Marathon that was based on the run of Pheidippides at the battle of Marathon in 490BC, the olympics had already been going for 300 years at the point 776BC - 393AD
