That's the question we'll try to answer on Page One tomorrow with a profile on Joseph Turner, the young Ventura man who is leading Save our State, which has stirred up the controversy regarding the Baldwin Park monument with a series of protests. Staff writer Zeke Barlow (zbarlow@VenturaCountyStar.com), who is writing the piece, finds that that Turner has a history of anti-illegal immigration activism.

Another story we're considering for the front page is a follow on the state budget deal announced last night. We'll try to divine winners and losers and we'll look at some of the local impacts, particularly on education.

Speaking of education, staff writer John Scheibe (jscheibe@VenturaCountyStar.com) will look a threats by the Ventura County Commmunity College District instructors to strike at the start of the fall semester next month.

And then there's lots of news off the wire to put into the A1 mix: London winning the 2012 Olympics bid; world leaders in Scotland debating how to solve the problem of poverty, particularly in Africa; and ongoing developments in Iraq.
