IOWA DEMOCRATS: Send FAITH NALANI BROMWICH TO Democrat National Convention in Denver, August 2008

Faith Nalani Bromwich is a tireless delegate and worker in the 08 political campaigns. Barack Obama is the candidate for President. But like so many others around the nation, it is groups of everday people who are creating the smaller political dramas hardly ever told by dramatists or historians.

Faith's history will tell of a Native Hawai'ian who has lived in Iowa for 32 years, and enters the political scene with a courageous life story as her motivation, and the spirit she sees in Barack Obama (Aloha!) as the spark. With the help of a new friend long in Iowa politics and many others she is well on her way to a meteoric rise in the world of politics.

Faith's politics is that humans matter. She wants to return the Democratic Party and this nation back to what matters: helping those less fortunate than herself. That sounds to me very similar to the call I heard, when I was a child, from President John F. Kennedy: "Ask not what your country can do for you, but rather what you can do for your country."

What Faith is doing is becoming a beacon of hope, an ambassador of human rights, and all the subheadings, including veterans and healthcare, in addition to advocating for her brothers and sisters of the Kanaka Maoli and others in Hawaii who suffer from homelessness; a toxic environment containing depleted uranium; loss of coral that is further endangered by the superferry; cultural genocide that continues since 1854. I am honored to see that my mission and beliefs parallel and complement those of my friend, Faith Nalani Bromwich. I have learned much from her.

That is why a first step is to elect Faith Nalani Bromwich to Democratic National Convention. I'm pulling for her to be honored as the superdelegate chosen from the state convention in Des Moines on June 14. The other step is for the success of Faith and I, and so many others in the creation of a permanent Human Rights Caucus in the Party.

It is our hope that the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (1948) and other national and international documents pertaining to human rights become the basis for education, research, political advocacy, and bringing human rights into actuality as the force of LAW.
