Tell us a little about yourself?

My name is Christopher Michael Escobedo. I am a Civil Rights leader with LULAC, a current student at University of Washington Tacoma and most importantly a father of five. I am a Pierce County Arts Commissioner. I am the President of MEChA de UWT which is the Chicano Movement for students. I have earned an Associate’s Degree in Kinesiology with honors from Pierce College at Fort Steilacoom. I am here to serve.

What is your dream job? What kind of impact do you hope to make?

As the President of the United States of America I would hope to persuade Americans to end racism and slavery. I would also push for the United States to sign the Human Rights treaties created throughout the world. Once we end colonialism then we shall see a long lasting world peace.

If you could have dinner with anyone in the world (deceased or alive), who would it be and why?

Jesus Christ. I would ask him how we should proceed with the Revolution he began over 2000 years ago.

Who is your favorite public servant and why?

Bernie Sanders is my favorite because his platform comes from MLK and the Civil Rights movement.
