the first thing I said to my husband when Gov. Walz was announced
as Vice President Harris’s running mate was
“I cannot wait for the rest of the country to get to know this guy”
as a teacher Mr. Walz really challenged us as his students
his humor and excitement kept us engaged
that same energy and enthusiasm you’re seeing right now from him
is exactly how he was with us in the classroom
I remember that feeling when you would walk into his classroom
it didn’t really matter what had happened earlier on in the day
if you’d had a good day a bad day
you walked into his room and you immediately felt comfortable
he put you at ease you could focus
you could learn and we probably laughed a lot too
he’s just a common sense, voice of reason
steady guy and I think that’s exactly what we need right now
