Never in a million years did I imagine running for president. Growing up in Oklahoma as the daughter of a janitor and a mom who worked a minimum wage job at Sears, my dream was to be a public school teacher. My story has a lot of twists and turns, but I got a chance thanks to $50-a-semester commuter school and became a special education teacher, a law school professor, and a United States Senator. It wasn’t easy, and I didn’t do it alone.
