Contra Costa Times profile of Camejo

["Jose G. Perez" <jg_perez@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This is by far the best profile of Peter I've seen in the press:

CONTRA COSTA TIMES

[big delete]

Antonio González, president of the William C. Velásquez Institute, a
Latino policy and research think tank with offices in San Antonio and
Los Angeles, remembers Camejo from the 1970s.

González was a student at UC San Diego, and Camejo was an activist and
socialist 1976 presidential candidate with a shock of curly hair.

Even then, he was known in activist circles as a powerful public
speaker.

"He was like he is now, full of energy, very intense, obviously very
smart, sort of a fast talker," González said.

"Peter has always had the gift of gab. He has always had the ability to
communicate ideas in a pithy sort of way so that you can grasp a
complicated concept simply."
