Anthony Woods .... I'm really liking this kid
http://www.anthonywoodsforcongress.com/home.html

Ellen Tauscher is being tapped by the Obama Admin. Her seat is up for
grabs this fall .

I'm really liking this kid .


(from his website)

It’s time to send leaders to Washington with the courage to stand up and fight for their convictions.

Progressive Democrat Anthony Woods may be young, but he has spent more time on the frontlines of important battles than most politicians do in a lifetime.

A U.S. Army veteran, Woods earned the Bronze Star for serving our nation in Iraq during two long deployments, leading platoons in fierce battles and working with Iraqis to help rebuild their devastated nation.

Woods was born on Travis Air Force base in Fairfield, California, and raised by a single mother who worked long hours as a housekeeper. Overcoming numerous obstacles, such as a lack of health insurance for most of his life, Woods fought to realize his dream of a quality education and the chance to serve his country by earning a Congressional Appointment to the United States Military Academy at West Point, where he graduated on the Dean’s List.

Upon his return from Iraq, Woods continued his education at Harvard University, where he was awarded a Master’s Degree from the Kennedy School of Government. He was a co-recipient of the Robert F. Kennedy Public Service Award and organized missions to help rebuild hurricane-ravaged New Orleans.
