Things are heating up for the Democratic party in Nebraska! Yes, Nebraska!
We have a contested Democratic Senate primary and a contested Democratic Congressional primary! If this isnt proof that the 50-state strategy is a great idea, I don't know what is.
One of those very exciting Nebraska Democrats is a man named Richard Carter, running for Congress in NE-02. In addition to being a very exciting candidate, a veteran of the Air Force, a member of the Air Force Reserve, an economist, and a teacher, he is also a member of this community.
Richard will be here tomorrow at 3:30 PM Central time for a live blog on Education. As a teacher, Richard has a unique perspective on many issues related to education: the roll of the federal government (less), student loans (more and cheaper), incentives for businesses to help students with tuition (expanded), No Child Left Behind (ended), and plenty more.
I hope all of you will be able to join us tomorrow for a detailed discussion on these issues. Richard is the kind of candidate who does his best to answer every detail of every question, and if he doesnt have the answer, he's honest enoguh to admit it, and then learn about it. (Look at the comments in his last live blog to see what I mean.
And, of course, a candidate diary wouldn't be complete without a link to our ActBlue page.
Again, 3:30 PM central time tomorrow. I hope you will join us.
