Meet Jenny & Leo Admin Notes

Well, all you Westerners (and friends of the West) have probably figured this out by now - but we've been adding contributors lately. The two latest newcomers are Jenny Greenleaf and Leo Brown. A brief introduction to each...

Jenny Greenleaf, a relative newcomer to politics, signed up as an active Democrat three years ago. Since that time, she's been on a mission to figure out how the Democratic Party works and then to revitalize and reform it. Fleeing a dot.bomb job and a 20-year career in high-tech, she became a full-time volunteer for Democrats in 2002, and has worked on several projects including volunteering on the 2002 and 2004 Coordinated Campaigns as well as the Dean campaign, organizing fundraisers, wrangling volunteers, and training precinct workers. She advocates for party simplification, for organizing around activists instead of Party positions, and for making politics more fun. Jenny was elected by the Democratic Party of Oregon to serve on the Democratic National Committee in December 2004.

Leo Brown is a graduate of the University of Utah and has a Ph.D. from Harvard University in chemistry. He resides in La Jolla, California where he works in sales for a small software firm. He is a disaffected Republican, frequent behind-the-scenes contributor to One Thousand Reasons, and a big fan of Senator Harry Reid. He discovered Western Democrat while surfing the net and believes that its program provides the best hope that America and the Democratic Party can find its way out of the political wilderness.

We've also added photos and rounded out bios for the rest of us, over on the contributors page. Thanks for coming 'round and payin' a vist, folks!
