Rep. Mark Strama's Campaing Academy is gearing up to wind it down. This Saturday in Pflugerville (the pfabulous fcity with the pfunny name) is the Stramarama. An event to bring together voters, volunteers and the candidate in a big ol' family ho-down. The participants in this year's Campaign Academy are profiled a bit in today's AAS. Proving that at least they learned how to get some free media out of the Austin American-Statesman while up there at the Academy.
I met these kids, they rock the vote.
(Now that I finally have internet access again ...)
Awww. We love you too!
Now all we need is like a Tiny Tim of democracy to god-bless-us-everyone.
Great story in the Statesman.
Strama's campaign academy model should be emulated by other progressive campaigns. The academy proves that, if empowered, young people can make a huge diffrence in politics.
Can't wait for STRAMARAMA!
