... that just means I've probably seen her more on local TV than folks from other areas, and what I see looks pretty good. She's always been vocal about encouraging young students to study science and math, and to aim high and make something of themselves. She does the equivalent of pep rallies for science and math at local schools.

ETA: Kudos to Velshi for being the (only ?) one to ask such questions, and for giving her time for more than a sound bite answer. And kudos to you for posting this excerpt !
