Hillary Shaking It Up in Nashua

May 30th, 2007 at 1:00 pm | posted by Matthew Bartlett, ONE Regional Organizer

On Tuesday, Sen. Hillary Clinton did a downtown walk of Main Street in Nashua, New Hampshire. She stopped in at a few local stores to meet with primary voters.

Nine ONE members came out in ONE shirts and held posters that read “Thank you Hillary ‘n Sen. Smith for the Education for All Act”, “Proud to be American, Proud to be ONE”, and “Fight AIDS, Poverty, and Corruption in Africa”.

When Hillary walked by she noticed the signs and stopped to talk with the ONE members. Hillary was thrilled to see the poster thanking her for the EFA Act and spoke about the importance of getting children in the developing world enrolled in primary school. ONE member Melissa Skinner also spoke with Hillary about reforming the Farm Bill to allow impoverished Africans the ability to “trade their way out of poverty”.

Hillary then looked out in the crowd and was surprised to see all of the ONE members in ONE shirts and asked to shake everyone’s hand. She said that it was important for the ONE Campaign to keep up the visibility as she put on a ONE band.

Inside a local brewpub, while wearing a ONE shirt and holding his baby daughter, staunch conservative Kevin Keefe told Hillary, “I am a conservative and I am not supporting anyone on the democratic side, but I want to thank you for your efforts fighting HIV/AIDS in Africa”.

From Main Street in Nashua, New Hampshire, to the halls of Congress and on to the continent of Africa, there is a new and fresh partnership between America and the world’s poorest people. Republicans and Democrats are both realizing the opportunity we have to save lives around the world.

We are America, we can beat extreme poverty, we can make poverty history, we are ONE. It starts with your voice, and it starts today.
