AJC you may be joking a bit but they represent all of us and should not be asking if we are a supporter or not. Those accepted may serve and die representing all of us. While I understand that the interview process is difficult for them due to sheer number, my son had problems with Sen. Booker's on-line application not saving data, both Senator offices not having the entire file ( recommendations when they did) and I was more than disappointed that we never heard anything in courtesy from either one of them in either a form letter or e-mail regarding the results of nomination process. The application process is not easy and many applicants and their responsible adults drove from all over state to attend. Congressmen Lance, and his support office, on other hand, were outstanding in conducting the interviews and personally notifying my son. Congressman Lance was actually there during the interview process.
