Who's the leader of the DNC?

Tom Perez is the newly elected leader of the Democratic National Committee where it will be his job to redefine the party and to align it closely with the needs of American citizens.

Using the approach recommended in my book, How to Select an American President by James A. George with James A. Rodger (c) 2017 Archway Publishing, consider the Perez resume.

Perez is a Harvard-trained lawyer, and that is a stellar beginning. His profession includes American politician, consumer advocate, and civil rights lawyer. These credentials are appropriate for becoming the advocate for members of the Democratic Party.

He is the son of immigrants. He is quoted as having recalled what his parents told him, “In order to get to heaven, you have to have letters of reference from poor people.”
