Reitan, a 26-year-old Mankato West High grad and a Harvard master's student (theological studies) is taking time off from his studies to work for the Gay & Lesbian Victory Fund as well as LGBT for Obama.com. He was in Denver for the Democratic National Convention to further the cause for both organizations.
It's not a shock that lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender organizations feel more comfortable with Democrats than Republicans. The LGBT caucus long has been a part of the Democrats' political structure.
The Reitan's are a wonderful family and I love them dearly. I'm glad to see that Jacob is doing this.
