CatayuneOh, you know, I was curious about the origin, or the roots, haha, get it?  Grassroots...anyway.  I was curious about that myself.  So let's have Michael help us out again.   
My understanding of it is that grass has roots that are very broad, and they're not very deep but they broad.  The way grass grows is it sends its roots out and then sprouts and those sprouts send more and more roots out.  So it's about a chain reaction or a growing web of people that over time come to life.
The more people you reach out to, the more people they reach out to, and so on, and so on and so on.  I'd say that joining a grassroots campaign is the best to empower yourself.
That's why a woman named Catayune is involved in a grassroots campaing to elect a political candidate.  
My name is Catayune andI live in Washington DC, I grew up in Ohio. Grassroots campaign helps me because it means that ideas and emphasis and energy comes up from the grassroots, from everyday citizens. So it helps empower everyday citizen to really have a voice in national politics.  
Well, what do you think, Yang Chen.  Joining a big group of people and fighting for the same common goal doesn't it sound exciting?
You don't sound very Come on let's go join everyone and take part in the grassroots campaign.  
Thanks for joining us on American Cafe.  We gotta go!  See ya!
