Favorite Quote:

"Q: What a beautiful sweater.
A: Thank You. I don't want to worry about machines.
Q: What do you worry about?
A: I was standing on the corner waiting for the light to change when I noticed, across the street among the people there waiting for the light to change, an extraordinarily handsome girl who was looking at me. Our eyes met, I looked away, then I looked again, she was looking away, the light changed. I moved into the street as did she. First I looked at her again to see if she was still looking at me, she wasn't but I was aware that she was aware of me. I decided to smile. I smiled but in a curious way--the smile was supposed to convey that I was interested in her but also that I was aware that the situation was funny. But I bungled it. I smirked. I dislike even the word "smirk." There was, you know, the moment when we passed each other. I resolved to look at her directly in that moment. I tried but she was looking a bit to the left of me, she was looking fourteen inches to the left of my eyes.
Q: This is the sort of thing that--
A: I want to go back and do it again."

Reason for Seeking Public Office:

I'm honestly not running for Senate because I think I'll win. I'm running because I'm worried people have no idea this election is even happening. This election is nearly as important as the presidential election that will be happening on the same day, yet Louisianans seem content to allow the Republican party to appoint their next preferred guy to the job. Hopefully, I can at least get some people to pay attention, maybe I'll even get to steer the conversation in a different direction. Plus no one in this election is even saying they're pro-choice. I'm pro-choice. Someone has to be. Vote for me.
