...good at it! The force of her conviction comes through." Said Dallas Political Consultant Judy Bonner Amps: "You can't help but like the woman. She's attractive, charming, intelligent and totally committed to Jimmy. People eat up that sort of thing." In the grueling midday sun she toured places like a Harlingen health clinic, where she was given a Nuestra Hermana en Salud (Our Sister in Health) award, and she inspected a Fort Worth Y.M.C.A. camp with programs for the handicapped, where she took her turn on the obstacle course.
