31. I switched my support to Dean about 5 months ago
I'm from a family of ten siblings; and very poor, money-wise, but had a very happy childhood and a very close-knit family. My Mother was a Democrat, and I always noticed how she helped others through their hard times. She was a mid-wife; she took three little neighborhood children under her wing when their Mother died, and she was always active in our little community. I have been a Democrat ever since I can remember. I worked in politics all my life, for both Republicans and Democrats, and it was an eye opener. Though I liked both parties back then, and loved working with them, there was a huge difference in the two parties, and I registered as a Democrat and have always voted for my party, regardless of who is on the ticket.At first, my support was going to John Kerry, whom I still love and admire, but, Howard Dean hit me head on when it was evident he wasn't afraid to take on the Bush Administration. I've been so frustrated with George W. Bush and his policies, and his arrogance, it was absolutely refresing to see someone like Dean take on the establishment. For the first time in my ever so long life, I've made contributions to the Dean campaign, because he's what's right for America.
