Deb Haaland for Congress in New Mexico...

Just watching her on Tuesday's Amanpour. If she wins, and she probably will, she'll be the first native American in Congress.

Incredibly well-spoken, decent, and intelligent. Looks like she'll be great in Congress, and maybe eventually the Senate... or more.
