5. I campaigned my heart out, for John Kerry

It was a wonderful time that I will never forget. I met and saw some of the most amazing people, who were also out campaigning for him. The feeling of unity in our common cause was amazing. The quality of the people working for him was beyond impressive.

When we realized he was not going to be able to declare victory, I knew beyond the shadow of a doubt, that he would throw himself right back into serving this country. He is an honest, ethical, moral and very hard working public servant.

I was so fortunate to actually be able to meet him, when he came to Flint to campaign for Jennifer Granholm. On that day I was still wearing my Veterans for Kerry button, which brought a big smile to his face.
