Anne Dicker for State Rep

Wow, great story. I've met Anne and really liked her. I hope she wins!

Why I'm running for State Rep | Anne Dicker for PA State Representative: "But in the winter of 2003, I suddenly became politically active almost overnight – all because of the Iraq War. Gathering together in the packed upper story of the Standard Tap in April 2003, a group of mostly young, professional, and previously politically uninvolved Philadelphians met to discuss the impending invasion of Iraq and how to support Howard Dean – the outspoken presidential candidate who opposed it. Out of that gathering was born Philly for Dean, a group of newly energized and newly politically active Philadelphians dedicated to altering our country’s historical course.

Eventually, Philly for Dean became Philly for Change as we realized that our mission went beyond a single election – that our mission was to transform politics as we know it, and bring our country back to its political roots.

So here I sit today, writing this blog post about changing politics as we know it. But this is the first chapter, and I want you to be able to use these posts as a guide to transforming politics in your neighborhood, city, and country. So I’ll end here for the day.

Right now: its time to go ring door-bells in my neighborhood!
