As a 17 year old, I often see my fellow High School students cringe at the thought of getting involved with political campaigns. Each and everyone of us has the opportunity to make a difference in this year's election, yet none seem to jump at the chance. However, I've decided to dedicate my three month hiatus away from school to volunteer for Dr. Victoria Wulsin's campaign for Congress.
I'm here to ask for your help though, with only a few weeks away from the end of this political quarter we need to send a clear message to Congresswoman Jean Schmidt, that we're tired of rubber stamp politicians who represent politics as usual. Actblue Page in the hopes of helping Wulsin maintain her fundraising advantage over Jean Schmidt. My goal is to raise $2000 today from small 5 dollar donations today. If you can't donate than please recommend this diary so that others can see this diary and help Wulsin's campaign.

It's not even August yet and Jean Schmidt is already spewing out lies. With less than six months to go until the election she's now claiming, in a fundraising letter, that Democratic candidate Dr. Victoria Wulsin engaged in "grotesque experiments" as a doctor with the Heimlich Institute, injecting unwilling patients in China and Africa with the "Malaria virus." The truth is, Dr. Wulsin was fired from the Institute after she wrote literature opposing these experiments. According to The Daily Bellwether there's another problem with Schmidt's attacks... there is no Malaria virus.How can we prove Schmidt doesn't know what she is talking about? For starters, Schmidt's claim that victims in China and Africa were injected with the "malaria virus" is freighted with intent to deceive because a "malaria virus" does not exist. Malaria is caused by a parasite of the Plasmodium genus. And Baratz, who filed the medical board complaint, says Wulsin didn't inject anyone in China or Africa:
