John, Great speaking with you yesterday. As discussed, I am attaching an early effort at a policy ideas paper. You were nice to give me a listen. I have tremendous respect for what you are doing and I want to do anything I can do to be helpful. I am passionate about getting Hillary elected. This is our last best shot at getting America back on track. If we don’t our children face a grim future. Hillary can do it, and we can’t be bold enough. The riots in Baltimore -- sadly if we don’t do anything more to come — are a reflection of a system that is badly out of kilter. If you have no real chance at a good job, no real chance at a college education (unless — if you could conceivably get in — you borrow till your future is in jeopardy), If you are likely to have been imprisoned before your 25 etc. etc. etc. BTW my daughter has been a legal defender part time in Berkley and my favorite case is a black homeless high school age kid who was jailed in Oakland for going through a stop sign on his bicycle. Of course you know all of this. I believe for a variety of reasons, the ideas I have set out on the attached will help.
