State Rep. Kam Buckner is absolutely right that Chicago needs a city charter ( "Next mayor of Chicago has a reform mandate," March 1).We have one of the most corrupt, ineffective city governments, but it's not because Chicagoans are corrupt or ineffective people.It's because in our broken political system, aldermen have too much power over their wards, the mayor has too much power over the City Council and everybody is too busy fighting for their slice of power to actually get things done.
