I Played One on TV
I thought you might be interested to know that my efforts on behalf of Hillary Clinton included appearing in an ad urging the Democratic National Committee to seat the delegates from Michigan and Florida. I played a committed Democrat, hardly a stretch. My friends from Team Hillary, John and Jenny Doggett and Kathy Hughes, created a PAC to raise money for an ad that ran on CNN and during ABC News in the Washington, D.C. market. They were able to get studio space at the local cable station in Newton, MA for the shoot. I showed up just to lend support but ended up in the commerical. They were looking for regional diversity with my Midwestern accent! I couldn't believe these intrepid campaigners created a PAC and produced a commerical. That is really the story to tell. So many people involved in the campaign extended themselves in ways they probably couldn't have imagined a few months ago. The dedication of the people I volunteered with was so inspiring. It was such a priviledge to meet and work with such passionate and committed people. I learned so much from them.
