Last night, after @ewarren and @JulianCastro’s event in San Antonio, I saw a dad and his daughter came out of the selfie line. The little girl was wearing a homemade purple tshirt that said “Running for President, that’s what girls do.” She was literally jumping with joy.
As they were leaving, she spotted a placard next to me and pointed at it. One of the liberty green ones that says “Dream Big Fight Hard.” Clearly someone had dropped it during the event, because it was rumpled and a little worse.
They walked over to me and the dad asked if they could have it, even though it was a little torn on one one corner and scuffed up. I said of course, but we had some other ones (with different slogans) that I could get for them if they liked.
“Oh no,” said the dad, while his daughter peeled out from behind him. “She wants one that says Dream Big Fight Hard to put in her room. It’s kind of her motto now.”
And I was struck in that moment by Elizabeth. And what she means and this campaign means and the pinky promises mean for so many little girls just like the one in the purple t-shirt. And what a difference it’s going to make 5 or 10 years down the line.
So needless to say — we found that little girl a *pristine* placard to put up in her room. And I told her she better stick to her motto and keep dreaming big and fighting hard. And she said, “Yep, because I promised Elizabeth I would!” ❤️
