Welcome to Rep. Mark Strama's Campaign Academy 2010 Blog!

The Mark Strama for State Representative Campaign Academy is a unique summer opportunity for high school and college students to work inside a high-profile campaign. We are learning the nuts and bolts of modern politics as well as the important policy questions that confront state government. Lunch speakers come in everyday ranging from current and former elected officials, political consultants, and university professors to state policy experts to share their experiences in politics with us.

Campaign Academy has been dedicated to ensuring that all students like us have a rewarding and challenging experience, while making a difference in the political system.

Name: Sohin Gautam
Age: 20
School and Year: University of Kentucky, Senior
Major (if applicable): Political Science/Geography
Elevator Pitch: In the early 21st century I found myself drawn to politics. Understanding the way the country is actually ran (versus how it is or how it should be) drew my mind's reflection. Upon discovering the horrors of the political system, I was turned off the whole concept more than ever. As I wandered mindlessly through the political landscape, I found Mark Strama ripe with new ideas and concepts to make politics, for Texas and beyond better. His eagerness brought my passion of politics back.
Favorite Political Figure: Truman
Favorite Musician: Red Hot Chili Peppers
Hobbies: Debate, Football, taking long walks on the beach, politics I guess...
