“That is the only reason to be a political person — to translate belief into action, to create change for the better — whenever, wherever, and however one can.” Governor Madeleine Kunin's Farewell Address (Jan. 11, 1991)

Friends,

25 years ago I became Vermont's first female governor. I know now that we need a second.

We need a new vision for Vermont. We need someone to look at the challenges we face with a fresh set of eyes. Someone that will listen to all sides, but also has the executive experience to implement tough decisions. We need a governor that will have the imagination to do things differently in Montpelier to improve our economy.

Today, I'm endorsing Deb Markowitz for Governor.

I've known Deb since she was a teenage waitress working, while attending the University of Vermont. Even then, I saw the determination, work ethic and energy that led her to the Secretary of State's office. I made her promise back then, that if she ever had a chance to run for public office, she would. She hasn't let me down. In fact, she has made me so proud.

Now, I can't let her down!

To get Deb in the governor's office we need to have the resources to win this campaign. Can you help me raise $1,985 for Deb? It's the year I took office and a year I look back fondly on. But I would rather look forward to 2011, the year Deb will take the oath that I took 25 years ago.

You could donate $20.11 in honor of that special year.

Deb will be the leader that translates belief into action. She will make change. Not just for change sake, but for the betterment of Vermont. She will do it whenever, wherever and however she can. I want you to join me in making sure she does it from the governor's office.

Sincerely,

Madeleine Kunin

P.S. I hope you will take a look at the video endorsement we prepared for Deb. Your $25, $50 or $100 contribution will will only bolster the support and momentum Deb will receive from the endorsement today of EMILY's List, the nation's largest financial resource for women candidates.
