California News
Here's some news from the Dean blog for the California contingent of our family:
CALIFORNIA GETS ON TRACK FOR HOWARD DEAN!!
In 2 days, 21 people will be boarding the train for Iowa. They range in age from 18-82 and come from as far to the north as Redding Ca and to the south as Tehachapi. They are all converging in Emeryville to begin their journey to the center of the political universe to TAKE THEIR COUNTRY BACK.
You could not find 21 more excited people to be embarking on this adventure. The dedication of each and every traveler is pure inspiration.
It's been fun to pull these people together and it will be more fun to get to know them all and work together with a common purpose. Every one of us, willing to do whatever it takes to get this job done.
I was just on the news in our area, being interviewed during the debates tonite about why I'm going. My response was.... I want to take my country back. Our country has lost it's moral focus and we're tired of the lawless barons that run our country. (Which is why we'd never even THINK of doing something illegal like voting in the caucuses, as Gephardt has accused). I had my 2 minutes of fame and while it's very exciting, it's so much more important to me that I put out a message that might resonate with even ONE PERSON!
Some people who have to stay behind have created a team page. If you're interested in donating on behalf of all those going from sunny California to frrrrrreeeezing Iowa, click my name. It will be a grand way to show support from wherever you are for those of us that can do this trip.
GO DEAN!!! GO DEAN PEOPLE!!!!
