## **Life Story and Wellness**

Sherry Lynnswagger-Brockert was the daughter of Nick Lynnswagger and Mary Brockert (Teena Marie) and who has a very deep and thick political experience. From serving as New York assemblywoman, New York state senator, New York mayor, governor of New York, US Representative of New York's 15th district and currently serving as US senator from New York. She followed her grandmother's (Penelope Lynnswagger) footsteps in the political world. She grew up in Brooklyn in the Bushwick neighborhood. She was raised by her mother Mary Brockert. As she described in a 2020 interview with News 12 The Bronx. "Life was hard when I was younger, my mother constantly got beaten by my biological father. We were living in poor conditions. It wasn't the greatest of times. But when my stepfather came in Rick James it changed my entire world. I had hope in life again." She also said that she has a mental condition that whenever she gets a flashback she can get really angry, really sad, really happy and basically bipolar issues. She was always in her opinion forgotten in the world and everyone treated her like a piece of crap in her early life. She went to the University of Columbia in Manhattan, New York. During that time she met Henley Buckley. Her husband died in 2020. She graduated with honors and she walked out of her mother's home and said "I'm leaving to go find myself." She packed her bags and she walked out into the cold hard streets of New York. During the meantime she struggled because the minimum wage federally was $4.75. "The rent was too god damn high for the wages I got paid every hour. I couldn't afford to do such a thing but yet I managed to make it out alive." She worked in the Bronx for 5 years until she got interested in politics.

## **Political Life**

Her grandmother Penelope Lynnswagger encouraged her to run for New York assemblywoman in the district that she lived in. At the time Sherry didn't know much about politics as she said in the interview. She just said it was full of white men screaming at each other in the New York assembly and in the New York Senate. But her grandmother told her "Don't worry about them white men it's all about you you need to shine and represent your district!" She announced her candidacy to her local church. And she went door to door asking people what are their concerns in New York state. She also asks them to vote for her in the assembly election to fix those problems. She was elected in 2000. She was 25 years old at the time. She was amazed that she won because of her age and she was unsure that she was going to win against the Republican candidate. She got more and deeper into politics as the years went by. But some critics called her the one-termer, due to the fact that she served for only one term for most of her positions that she achieved in her 30-year political experience. "I respond to that saying I see those as opportunities to help my community every time where an incumbent doesn't run again or I can beat the incumbent. I always do that to help my community. It's nothing against the incumbent. but some incumbents realize and fail to realize where they're from and so they stop losing touch with reality. I run against them to slap them back into reality when they lose against me." Her grandmother had the same mindset and she did the same thing. Her grandmother has since retired from her political duties. And is a respected former senator from New York. Also during the interview. She announced presidential bid. "You know I always wanted to be president of the United States to help out the people of the United States. I know when the time has to come or we finally make history. Buckle up because something special is going to happen when I run for president." One of her most notable speeches is the DNC speech that she wrote. Some say that this speech really sparked fire to Democrats all around the United States and flip States like North Carolina and Georgia for Hammond.

## **Personal Life**

Sherry has two kids, one named Alice. Another one named Cassie. "Those two kids are everything to me. They bring sunshine in the morning for me every time the days are cloudy. One day they'll follow my political footsteps. We had our bad times but we always recovered from those times. I will always love those children no matter what. They're the only things that bring joy to me when the days are harsh and the world is cold." She also talks about in the interview that her husband Henley Buckley died in 2020 while she was governor of New York. "Henley was such a good man to me. He always knew how to be a gentleman to a woman. I miss him so much I would die for him. He was the best husband a woman could ask for how he died he got shot three times one in the head one in the heart one in the arm. He died right in front of me. All I could remember was his body laid against the gravel in front of my apartment. I broke down and started crying because I knew I could never get them back and he was so good to me he brought me a lot of joy, laughter and happiness. No one could feel that void except for my children. And sometimes even they can't even feel the void and I will always remember Henley." She broke down into tears and we had to cut the interview short. Currently she lives in the Bronx with her children living her best life.
