Really? This woman has written a great article explaining why she is running for office and obviously sides more with the Democratic Party based on her description of her stances on the issues. However, all you can do is tell her (without coming out and saying it) is to not run for office and go vote anything but Democrat at the polling booths?

This is a perfect example of what Erin is obviously fighting against. Why not just stop reading her article and not reply? Move on if you do not agree? Instead, you try to be pessimistic regarding the harsh realities of what our political system has become. Instead you bury your head in the sand and basically ignore the discrimination that takes place in politics.

Erin, I applaud your determination and it sounds like you have wonderful experience for someone at such a young age. Good luck with your campaign!!
