    Why Candace is a summer fellow

    “President Obama got young people to vote by standing for the issues that affect them. Even teenagers who couldn’t vote yet started having conversations about those issues. "What we lack in funding we make up with our boots on the ground. The President can’t go to every neighborhood and knock on people’s doors. You have to be that representative in your community. This will be the last time we’re able to elect President Barack Obama. Wouldn’t you like to look back and say ‘I was a part of the reason that happened?’"

    —Candace, a summer fellow in Michigan
