Margaret Hoover Biography / Wiki

Margaret Hoover is an American journalist, anchor and reporter currently working as a political commentator, political strategist, media personality and author. When she graduated from college, she moved to Taipei, Taiwan, where she got her first job as a research assistant and editor in a Taiwanese law firm. Everything really changed for her the first day she arrived there, which was September 11, 2001. She realized she wanted nothing more than to be back in the United States, where the deepest expression of patriotism was stirring in her country, something the likes of which none of them had seen before. She was so moved, as all Americans were, by the words of George W. Bush, and the spirit and leadership of Rudy Giuliani. Everyone was so openly patriotic, including the youth. She wanted to be part of that. She wanted to participate in the functioning of their democracy.

She thought it would be an incredible honor to work for George W. Bush. She shored up a year in Taiwan, returned to the United States, and found my way to Washington by volunteering in a Senate race in her home state of Colorado. She landed a job in the House of Representatives for a member of Congress who was brand new from Miami, because he was looking for somebody who spoke Spanish in his Washington office. So that Spanish paid off. Then she had the good luck of getting a job on President Bush’s re-election campaign in 2003 and receiving a White House appointment in 2004. Then two years later, she had the chance to move to New York to work for Rudy Giuliani when he was thinking about running for president.
