Thank you letter from President Obama,
Dear Mina:
I want to thank you for all help you provided to our Delaware campaign. My staff told me about your incredible efforts to get our computer system up and running, and keep it running despite numerous problems….
Being a female Iranian-American techie running a software startup company who is married to a Dutch guy puts me in a unique position when I meet people…..
Back in January 2008 in Delaware, the energy and the excitement was building. We were getting closer to Super Tuesday, and we had a team of official campaign staffers leading our movement.
Growing up in the Middle East has its own charm. You get used to buying fresh bread from the bakery every day. You get used to seeing big families and having many cousins, third cousins, and so on.
It all started when we decided to move to a single-family home in a Delaware suburb. We did a proper inspection like any other responsible buyer. But we forgot one minor detail, which was to put our offer contingent upon having cell phone signal at the house!
