I love her story.

One thing the 2016 election did was energize women to run for public office in numbers never seen before. Both D & R candidates getting into the mix for the first time. Fresh blood in the Old Boy's Club most likely isn't a bad thing at all.

p.s. She's running as one of the good guys.

I'm not sure where she stands on the issues, but I like her spirit, drive, attitude, guts, and the way she stands up for what she thinks is right. cool

Asking you if you are stalking because you made the same comment to me in multiple threads. Your hivemind borg star trek reference is what is in question. And NOBODY called you a stalker, I said "stalker much?".

This is a must-do, 'cause, you know-
El-P and Killer Mike could endorse you, and run your entrance music at rallies.

I voted against Clinton both times. When he was President I couldn't stand him, I was a die hard Reagan Republican.

From her website...


Quote:
Gold Star Father Khan Endorses Candidate In Round Rock RaceMarch 22nd, 2018 Veteran opens up about her career and running for Congress


I find it funny, that Dems still don't get that running Anti Trump and not for something is not really going to work. . . .

Guys like Lamb in Pa won because they ran in centralistic areas and spoke to issues opposed to running on the Anti Trump rhetoric.

Quote:
Advocating for families and protecting our children’s future
But she supports abortion. I just think this statement is ironic.

Not really in-depth on her site when it pertains to issues thought. I wonder if she is trying to keep it vague because of where she is running and is afraid to put her beliefs on paper.

I would like to learn more about her, even if I think its funny she is trying to push a rebel image of "riding a motorcycle butt-kicking democrat....." rofl

I think most candidates have already figured that out. Truth be told, I haven't seen any D candidates who are running on a specifically anti-Trump platform.

It's the (potential) voters who routinely express their disdain for 45*.

Touting she is backed by Khan, seems (at least to me) she is trying to show she is anti trump. Its a veiled, but that's what I got from it. With all due respect to Mr. Khan and his family, what does his endorsement mean in the realm of politics? The only reason to put that on there, is because its widely known his despise for trump. at least IMO

I thought so.
I also thought others might enjoy it, as well.


Party politics aside, I wish more folks of her stripe would seek office.

The thing I like about her the most is that she is a "reluctant" politician.. she didn't plan her career around politics, getting an Ivy League law degree, or coming from a politically connected family or seeking to change the world from her teenage years.. she just saw first hand that what we are doing isn't working and decided the only way to change it was from the inside..

If she wins, I hope she stays true to her convictions... just from that short video, if anybody can, it's her.

but her service alone earns my respect and consideration of a fair review.

I don't know about it being a down side. A gold star family who was attacked by a politician seems like a pretty attractive proponent.

I went to her website, there isn't a lot of content there on her actual political views that I could find... didn't have a lot of time, will have to do some digging later..

Seems odd since I can neither vote for or against her since I don't live in Texas.... but I want people of good character in office, the more the better (on both the R and D side).. and with what little I know to date, she seems like one..

Election results disagree with you. AS do I. To each their own. The Dems who have been successful lately have all ran in swing areas that trump won - they ran on jobs and issues, not against trump.

The popular vote agrees with me. And isn't that what state elections are based on? Even more to the point, isn't that what elections in districts based on?

You seem to miss the point. Rather unwillingly or willingly. The Kahn family wasn't involved in those races. It was involved in the presidential election. The presidential election is decided by the electoral college. The popular vote went the other direction in the only matter the Kahn's were involved with.

When you are a target of politics you become involved in politics.

Hes not, which is why he shouldn't have been used by the lowly dems simply for optics. And is why he shouldn't be used as someone who's opinion for support means anything. Which is why someone who touts his support is using that as running against trump, and not the issues. As another poster stated, the candidate does not have much info on her site - its rather vague. I wonder why?
