This photo of Jeremy Bird ’00<\/strong> recently appeared in a major US newspaper – he’s pondering the challenges of the upcoming mid-term elections.<\/p>\n

I remember talking to him several years ago, when he was with Wake-up Walmart,<\/em> and he hinted he would probably find himself with some role in the then-upcoming elections.<\/p>\n
