Cory Booker takes the lead
Senator Cory Booker (D-NJ) is a true leader. Watch this video. This is how a leader acts.
A Leader:
- Doesn’t denigrate others working in the resistance.
- Brings everyone in the effort together.
- Works to make things better.
- Sets a positive example.
- Establishes goals, works to meet them, then goes further.
This is what we want and expect from our Democratic Senators. They are truly a Thin Blue Line. There are times when they will be overwhelmed by the foolishness that is the Trump administration, yes. Overall, though, we want them to stand up for us in this dark time.
2018 isn’t far away
I look to and expect Senator Booker to do the right things for the United States. Is he Presidential? Absolutely? Will he be the right person to lead the Democratic effort to evict Trump from the White House in 2020? That remains to be seen. We’ve got four years on that. We’ve got midterm elections, where all of the House, 1/3 of the Senate, and over 35 governors will stand for election. For us to stop the evil that will come forth from the White House and Congress under Trump control, we need leaders who will motivate and encourage Democrats. We need leaders who, by their actions, demonstrate they have the best interests of the people and their states in mind.
So, we need women and men like Cory Booker.
While there are others in the Senate who will also stand up and make it clear they are part of the resistance. Senator Booker is not our only leader. He is a good model for others to observe and emulate.
I plan to commit to doing at least one thing for the #resistance and one thing to build up everyone working to better our country and our homes.
