This was another great day for our END campaign. Vinny spoke with William Joyce and he just might have found lawyer who is be willing to represent us in court. I on the other hand, I started off the day by meeting with Dick Puritan. He is very nice guy and great ally of SIM. We had lunch at the Harvard Club, Renata and Andres were there too.
After lunch Andres and I rushed to our meeting at the Senator Kerry’s office. We were a little late so we had to jog a couple miles. I was a pretty funny scene if you ask me, especially since I was wearing my suit and running full speed while Andres spoke with Lai Wa on the phone. But we made it on time even though I was a little out of breath when I got there.
There we spoke with Tristan Takos, she used to work for senator Kennedy and now works with senator Kerry. She was very nice and after listening to Vinny and I she agreed to help us by getting senator Kerry and the rest of delegation to sign a letter showing that they support us. The meeting went really well, I wasn’t even nervous. I guess I am getting used to tell people my story. After the meeting we went to the SIM office where I spent the rest of the evening with all the great people working on my END campaign.
