Even to my conservative readers I hope you consider a vote for me to gain a scholarship to the Net Roots Nation event coming up this July. Economist Paul Krugman and other bloggers will be speaking. Consider it a 28th birthday present (July 13th baby!)

Help me grow as a progressive activist who advocates for issues that matter not political politics.
As someone who has been blogging since 2002 and politically active in the social justice movement since 2001 I would learn a ton and would walk away a better advocate at focusing on policy not people on my blog and in my political efforts. We all fall short from time to time of this goal; but its a goal that many bloggers and activists are turning to in their roles as leaders.
regards,
Jim

p.s. please contact friends and family to help my efforts!

She is running here in my district. We've had many conversations about the FT. If she comes out as an advocate, I'll do everything I legally can to help her get elected.
