John Kerry to Endorse Antonio Villaraigosa on Saturday
27 April 2005
John Kerry just sent out an email to his L.A. area supporters announcing his endorsement of Antonio Villaraigosa on Saturday. The event will take place at Los Angeles Valley College in Van Nuys.
Here’s a quip from Kerry’s email about his endorsement of Antonio Villaraigosa:
Rallying around a stand-up guy like Antonio Villaraigosa is exactly the kind of thing you and I and other members of our johnkerry.com community should be doing. He keeps his promises, works hard, and gets things done. He's a leader with integrity.
Antonio and I share a set of core convictions that I know you share as well. We believe in empowering citizens to make the most out of their own lives by ensuring access to quality, affordable health care, especially for our children; creating good jobs; and improving our public schools. Antonio is deeply committed to these goals. He has led efforts to modernize California's public schools and provide millions of children access to health care. I believe Antonio brings important leadership skills and a fresh vision to the challenges of major city governance. He always puts kids first and will put the families of Los Angeles first as mayor.
