I could have written those. 
A few weeks ago I posted an article about what poverty looks like in Somerset County NJ. While Christie is out praising himself, New Jerseyans that live in the 9th wealthiest county in America are falling through the cracks in the shadow of that wealth. The profile is raised only in his mind.
I'd like to invite him to join me at the Food Bank this morning. After a Fork and Screen movie last night - my husband and I filled up 8 bags at Shop Rite with pasta, sauce, powdered milk, oatmeal, and stew. It's not glamour and high profile - but at least we are doing something of VALUE to uplift the REAL face of NJ today.
