The New Mexico Politico

Friends, Foes, and Family

I wanted to update you on some news regarding The New Mexico Politico. When I started this site last year I was a young, passionate, and opinionated teenager that cared for my beloved New Mexico and country. I have been able to project my opinion on policies, candidates, and culture that I think are important in this running dialogue we call democracy. I am far from being a brilliant student, innovative politico, or kingmaker but I am a regular New Mexico kid engaging in the political process simply because I care for my country and state. The New Mexico Politico has allowed me to be the Citizen Soldier I think we are all called to be. I have found that I am not alone in this and have decided to include more youth from across New Mexico to engage in this dialogue and be Citizen Soldiers. I will be hosting daily, weekly, and monthly columnists from different backgrounds to offer their distinct perspective on New Mexican politics, culture, and national events. I don't care if they are liberal, conservative, moderate, libertarian, black, blue, pink, or orange. It is so important to society to provide an avenue for the youth to voice their opinion because they have as much invested in the well being of our state and country as anyone! I will be moving to another site, www.nmpolitico.com, in the near future but will remain active in this original site. I welcome anyone regardless of age to submit a column to The New Mexico Politico as well. I have decided to work vehemently to give a voice to the youth and with your support we will be able to achieve this! God bless.
