Daniel Hernandez has led with the most memorable part of his biography in the videos for this campaign for Congress — his heroism on Jan. 8, 2011. It would be nice to see him move on.
Tim Steller The video opens with the sound of a cell phone buzzing and barely audible sirens starting to rise.
The Jan. 8 mass shooting overhangs our politics still, sometimes in ways that survivors find off-putting or triggering. And now, a new documentary on Gabby Giffords is coming out, with the usual political and emotional ramifications. Dr. Randy Friese had been their guy in the race for this new district, which covers much of the Tucson area and most of southeastern Arizona. Friese was the trauma surgeon who treated Giffords and nine-year-old Christina-Taylor Green after the mass shooting. He went on to serve in the Legislature.
Important to remindAmong the four survivors I asked about Hernandez's ad, Barber expressed the most discomfort in how Hernandez used the Tucson mass shooting in his political videos. But of course, none of them is running in a competitive race for office, with the crying need to ensure that voters know who you are. That in essence, is why Hernandez keeps reminding people of his role on Jan. 8, 2011, even though it was eleven years ago now.
