I was in Dallas, Texas earlier this week for a day and a half. I had some personal business to attend to, then met with two Young Democrats of America friends, David & Chris, to talk shop. David (of Dallas) is running for President of YDA and Chris, who is from Tenn, is running for Executive Vice President. Our national convention this July will be in Dallas so David showed us the convention hotel and a little bit of the city. While taking the train (yay public transportation) to the convention hotel, David pointed out the Texas Book Depository and the place where JFK was shot and killed. What's notable is that on the street where Kennedy was killed is a big X, a permanent marker of sorts, so people can see the exact spot where he was shot. Is it just me or is that a little morbid? When we came back to out hotel, via train, we passed that memorial area again and there was a guy standing on the X, having his picture taken. Now that's just weird........I just don't get it.
Anyhoo....had a great time with my friends though it was a whirlwind trip. The political race is on as more candidates annouce their intention for various YDA offices. Should be an interesting couple of months. I am very proud to be associated with David's campaign and look forward to seeing him lead YDA for the next few years.
Peace!
