“I tell people the truth, which is, the district attorney is a nonpartisan job,” she said. “And, you know, people like to politicize the position, and I felt very strongly that I was going to be authentic to myself.”  Today's podcast represents the future of California as Ed interviews Sacramento District Attorney, Anne Marie Shubert, about not only her run for California State Attorney General but her points of differentiation.  As a county prosecutor, she formed Cold Case Prosecution and became a nationally recognized expert on forensic DNA. She also founded the Community and Government Relations Division, which combines community relations and legislative advocacy solutions to enhance public safety.    Why does she believe she can make a difference and what has she done to demonstrate her competence versus others that may be vying for the role.  Straight forward and direct, her comments are a refreshing look at the way a neutral, non-partisan candidate addresses the situation.  Direct responses are something one would expect from the person responsible for convicting he Golden State Killer and putting him behind bars.   Could we be listening to the conversation of the next Attorney General for the state of California?  You decide after the conversation.
