At the Governor's Residence

At the Governor's residence. Some of the Latino Chamber of Commerce (LCC) board members assisted to this reunion. I had the chance to meet with people I did not see in years and also an opportunity to share some ideas with them. I loved Jim Doyle's powerful speech; he talked about Latinos in Wisconsin and the role we have in this economy. Years ago I did not even know who the Attorney General was until one day a person called me and told me that he was involved in an accident and that a person named Jim witnessed the incident and gave him his phone number in case he needed it. A couple days later I called this person Jim and when I dialed the number the person on the other side responded: "Attorney General office", I was surprised, I did not know I was trying to reach the attorney general, I told the woman I needed to talk to Jim Doyle. She was so kind and transferred me to him. I did not have to wait at all. Sometimes other might tell me to call back later or like in many instances when a person is so important they tell you to leave your number and they will call you back, but never do. No, I was able to talk to the now Governor Jim Doyle right away and he helped me with the client I had. When he was running for governor I knew who he was and the kind of person he was so I did not hesitate to vote for him; no regrets about it. I do think he is a great person and he has done many things for Latinos and for the state of Wisconsin in general.
