About Me
- Matt
- Lima, Ohio, United States
- I was born and raised in Ohio. I am a lifelong Catholic Christian who has always been interested in the big questions of life. I have a passion for learning especially Philosophy, Science, Religion, History and Culture. I graduated from the University of Toledo in 2001 with a B.A. in International Relations. I married my soul-mate, Jen in 2001 and we moved to rural Tanigumi-mura Japan where we taught English for 3 years. We moved to California and lived in San Francisco and the Bay Area for 4 years. Tired of sitting on the sidelines, I began volunteering for the Barack Obama campaign in March of 2007 and was eventually hired as a Field Organizer. Through the Obama campaign, I found my calling and moved back to Ohio to continue organizing. In 2009 I helped the field operations of the Keith Wilkowski for Mayor of Toledo race. After that, I was hired as a Regional Field Director for 15 northwestern and north central Ohio counties for the 2010 Democratic Coordinated Campaign. Jen and I are continuing to volunteer as we wait for the next organizing opportunity to present itself.

"Terrorist Fist Jab", saying getting rid of Osama and Obama (and confusing the two) would be good. And claiming Obama is a muslim.
You know, Fox is so blatantly hateful and fear-mongering. I can't see how people watch it and not notice.
I just came to this conclusion... I have no respect for anyone who willfully watches FoxNews.
Hi Tim,
You know unfortunately many people out there are not media-savvy enough to really see these as propaganda. They are deluded by seeing the word "news" next to Fox and thinking the product is what it claims to be. In reality, it's worse than if the word "News" followed "Weekly World". The fact that millions continue to watch such garbage is not so much a testament to the support of far-right ideals as much as it is an indictment on the state of education in America today. We need to educate people about what they are watching and why it is so biased and destructive.
