We can't merely sit and watch this election - we all must be involved. This is why I'm running as a Democrats Abroad delegate, and why I'll be asking these questions if I am chosen as a delegate: How can we best help get Biden elected?
As a published writer and former journalist, I will also seek to write about this election: about the convention, about campaigning as a ground-level Democrat, about the reasons our country has become so stridently divded; and about why this election is so important.

As a university lecturer, a former journalist at washingtonpost.com, a freelance journalist and a fiction writer who deals with racial and social justice in her work, I am committed to working as hard as possible to ensure President Biden is re-elected. We are at a critical junction in the world and in our country, and it is absolutely vital that Republicans are not given power again under their current leader. I would spend my time at the convention learning as much as possible about how we Americans living overseas can work toward Biden winning. The strategies used in the past are not working as effectively as they did as recently as Obama’s campaigns. No one answers phone calls from unknown numbers anymore. How can we help in key swing states? How can we keep abreast of the most effective ways of campaigning? How can we recruit others to help? |
