Well I live to write another hastily written diary with bad grammer and mispellings. But still, I wuz listening to CSPAN and reading my bloggies. When I looked up to see the name of the person speaking and it was
Texas state Sen. Leticia Van de Putte!
I was gobsmacked......
This woman was a pharmacist on Culebra on the west side of San Antonio (in the Edgewood school district area). Every Monday I walked past a pharmacy on my way to the mobile library trailer to "time travel" back and forth through my addiction to reading. She took over that pharmacy after I grew up and moved away. My mom and Dad got to know her as she was their pharmacist for many years. They think the world of her.
And now, she is the co-chair of the Denver convention!
Wow, that is really cool to me.
Here is a video of her
I am delighted to see that a Mexican American woman is co chair and extra delighted that she is someone from "mi barrio".

I imagine she will be making a big delivery of Mexican American Democratic votes for Obama.
She is a Hillary supporter but I think she will be a great person to watch.
Yay!
