Experience at Convention 2012 by Luci Ramirez

Being here as a delegate from SD5 as a Latina small business owner from Round Rock, is an experience of a lifetime. My son Adrian Arredondo who is living in Meddpellin, Colombia e-mailed me this morning and said I will be watching you from CNN South America.

As I responded back to him and said I am crying as I write you. Thinking of that little girl that could not speak English and was starting school at 9 years old. Today i am a delegate to the DNC 2012. Only in America. These last two days talking to delegates from all over the country and seeing our diversity makes me so proud to be a Democrat. Here at the DNC we do not have to act that we are anything but true Americans from all walks of life. I am going to end today because I know tomorrow will be an unforgettable day.

   Hi Luci!
   I live in Cedar Park and just thought I’d check to see if there was a DNC viewing party nearby. I stumbled upon your sweet and heartfelt post. We WILCO Dems are very proud of you and thank you very much for representing us!
   Big hug to you and your family here and in Meddpellin, Columbia,
   Kersten
