I'm honored to be running as a Delegate to the Democratic National Convention in the 6th Congressional District, pledged to Barack Obama. I've been a grassroots supporter of Senator Obama's for years, having first contributed to his campaign in 2004 when he was running for Senate from Illinois. I admired his courage in opposing the Iraq War in 2002, when that was a risky stance to take, and I am proud to be part of his campaign of hope.

I am Co-Chair of Berks for Obama, www.berksforobama.com, and currently working hard to register voters in advance of the March 24 deadline for voting in the Primary.

I've never run for anything before, and don't think I ever will again, but I would love to attend this historic convention in Denver, representing the 6th CD and Berks County, and I ask for your vote on April 22. Thank you!
