The Voice
My name is Debbie Hines and I want CNN to fly me to Charlotte.
My mother is my inspiration. She always said if you have a voice, it’s very important to use it. As a blogger and a trial lawyer, I know how to use my voice. And I want to use it to report on the stories of women and minorities. From the Republicans’ assault on women, voter ID laws, disenfranchisement of voters and voter fraud lies, this convention is about fighting for the soul of our country.
It’s up to us with a voice to say something, do something and report something. I’m ready to hit the ground running and tell the real life stories of women, blacks and Hispanics and what’s at stake for them in this election. Their stories must be told, one voice at a time. I am their voice.
