While attending the annual Howard County Jefferson Jackson dinner tonight, I had the great joy of meeting Kweisi Mfume. A former five-term Congressman from Baltimore and most recently the head of the NAACP, Mfume attended this Howard County Democratic Party event as part of his run for the open Senate seat of retiring Senator Paul Sarbanes (D-MD). My organization hasn’t endorsed anyone yet in the Senate race, so this meet up was pretty much my groupie nature taking over. Mfume is a great man and I’m proud that he’s a Marylander. You can find out more about him on his campaign site.
