Others, she says, told her, "'you can never do this because people don't have passion, you can't do this because you don't have one main personality running this, a candidate.' The truth is," says Jacobson, "the idea is so much more important than any one person. No Labels doesn't mean 'don't have a label', it just means put the label aside so we can focus and work together and do what government needs to do. That's it," says Jacobson.</p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 14px; list-style: none; padding: 0px; border: 0px;">And so, the force known as Nancy Jacobson made it happen.<br style="list-style: none; margin: 0px 0px 4px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; display: block;" /><img alt="2010-12-13-imgres2.jpeg" src="http://images.huffingtonpost.com/2010-12-13-imgres2.jpeg" width="176" height="190" style="border: 0px; list-style: none; margin: 15px 10px 10px; padding: 0px; float: right;" /></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 14px; list-style: none; padding: 0px; border: 0px;">Jacobson's work history is a who's who of politics: chief fundraiser for former president Bill Clinton, Finance Chair of the Democratic National Committee and Democratic Leadership Council and founder and creator of the Women's Leadership Forum, the first female-only finance council whose mission was to raise money and party awareness among women. She worked, too, for former Indiana Senator Evan Bayh and as a Senior Advisor for Senator Hillary Clinton's Presidential Campaign, which doesn't even begin to cover the ground that Jacobson has covered in her nearly 3-decade career.</p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 14px; list-style: none; padding: 0px; border: 0px;">Jacobson is well known for her uncanny ability to "connect" people, certainly an under-appreciated gift during her formative years. It was exactly Jacobson's ability to bring people together, to corral people, to talk to people, that got her kicked out of a private Miami, Florida high school when she was 14-years-old.</p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 14px; list-style: none; padding: 0px; border: 0px;">"I wasn't your stellar kid. I had a lot of energy. I was more the class clown. I was always connecting with people so I was always talking in class. That's really what it was. Always being the ringleader, always talking in class and being disruptive. That's a little known fact."</p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 14px; list-style: none; padding: 0px; border: 0px;">But it wasn't until Jacobson left Miami after her freshman year at the University of Florida and transferred to the much larger and more diverse Syracuse University, that she finally realized that her forte which had left her admonished throughout her childhood was exactly what was going to pave the way to her eventual success.</p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 14px; list-style: none; padding: 0px; border: 0px;">"I harnessed my urge to connect people and I put it to use," says Jacobson who is much happier behind the scenes than in the limelight and usually declines press interviews. What annoyed her teachers and got her kicked out of school, "is exactly what they value in politics," says Jacobson. "That's what was valued. If you could bring people, if you could corral people, if you could bring them together, whether it was to organize or to raise funds. That was valued. It was never valued before and now it was valued so I was encouraged. The lights went on and I started getting involved in politics right then a there."</p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 14px; list-style: none; padding: 0px; border: 0px;">Her involvement started in 1982. "I heard Gary Hart at a very small, 20-person meeting. He was running for president. I put my name down on a sheet and somebody called me. I ended up organizing the Syracuse campus. I did the first fundraiser. The headquarters was impressed and I got a lot of attention for that. And then Gary Hart won New Hampshire in 1984 and I ended up coordinating the district."</p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 14px; list-style: none; padding: 0px; border: 0px;">And that locked her in. By the age of 19, Jacobson had become one of the youngest alternate delegates in history.</p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 14px; list-style: none; padding: 0px; border: 0px;">By the time she had graduated from college, Jacobson had become a professional connector. A professional ringleader, if you will.</p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 14px; list-style: none; padding: 0px; border: 0px;">"I always did love people, loved connecting with people. I was led to do something that I was good at. But, if you ask me what I do, I'm not a fundraiser. Fundraising is the way I was able to make an impact. I realized very quickly that was the only way for women to be at the table in politics. But it's bringing people together to make impact, that's what I do. And fundraising is what got me at the table. I want to put people together. That's truly what I have always done. Everyone who knew me back in the day is surprised at what I have done."</p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 14px; list-style: none; padding: 0px; border: 0px;">While a senior advisor for Senator Bayh (who earlier this year announced he would not seek another term in the Senate), Jacobson realized that there was "one thing missing out there. It wasn't that we needed another candidate but that the majority of the people needed a voice." She wanted to figure out a way to round those people up and put them together -- and No Labels was born. "But I never wanted anyone to impugn me for this or think that there was anything in this other than my deep passionate desire to do this so I am a fulltime volunteer. I have never been more passionate, exhilarated or taken with a project in my life."</p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 14px; list-style: none; padding: 0px; border: 0px;">At the launch, Monday, in fact, Jacobson hung back from the limelight, speaking only for a short two minutes while a list of nationally recognized journalists and politicians took center stage, including<a href="http://johnavlon.com/" target="hplink" style="text-decoration: none; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 136, 195); outline: 0px; list-style: none; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px;">&nbsp;John Avalon</a>&nbsp;(senior political columnist for The Daily Beast and the author of&nbsp;<em style="list-style: none; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px;">Wingnuts: How the Lunatic Fringe is Hijacking America</em>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<em style="list-style: none; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px;">Independent Nation: How Centrists Can Change American Politics</em>),&nbsp;<a href="http://www.mikebloomberg.com/?gclid=CI-RtJCV6qUCFeYD5QodOHDe2A" target="hplink" style="text-decoration: none; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 136, 195); outline: 0px; list-style: none; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px;">NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg</a>,&nbsp;<a href="http://topics.nytimes.com/top/opinion/editorialsandoped/oped/columnists/davidbrooks/index.html" target="hplink" style="text-decoration: none; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 136, 195); outline: 0px; list-style: none; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px;">David Brooks</a>&nbsp;of the New York Times, Newark, New Jersey&nbsp;<a href="http://www.corybooker.com/" target="hplink" style="text-decoration: none; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 136, 195); outline: 0px; list-style: none; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px;">Mayor Cory Booker</a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href="http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/3036789/" target="hplink" style="text-decoration: none; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 136, 195); outline: 0px; list-style: none; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px;">Morning Joe's</a>,&nbsp;<a href="http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21775042/ns/msnbc_tv-morning_joe/" target="hplink" style="text-decoration: none; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 136, 195); outline: 0px; list-style: none; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px;">Mika Brzezinski</a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href="http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/3080460/ns/msnbc_tv-morning_joe/" target="hplink" style="text-decoration: none; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 136, 195); outline: 0px; list-style: none; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px;">Joe Scarborough</a>&nbsp;not to mention&nbsp;<a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/07/26/AR2009072602801.html" target="hplink" style="text-decoration: none; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 136, 195); outline: 0px; list-style: none; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px;">Kiki McLean</a>, D.C. communications strategist and&nbsp;<a href="http://www.bobfranken.tv/" target="hplink" style="text-decoration: none; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 136, 195); outline: 0px; list-style: none; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px;">Bob Franken</a>,</p><p style="margin: 0.4em 0px 0.5em; line-height: 1.5em;"><b>=</b></p><p style="margin: 0.4em 0px 0.5em; line-height: 1.5em;"><b>wiki</b></p><p style="margin: 0.5em 0px; line-height: 22.399999618530273px; color: rgb(37, 37, 37); font-size: 14px;"><b>Nancy Jacobson</b>&nbsp;is a&nbsp;<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democratic_Party(United_States)" title="Democratic Party (United States)" style="text-decoration: none; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(11, 0, 128); outline: none; background: none;">United States Democratic Party</a>&nbsp;fundraiser.<sup id="cite_ref-hotline_1-0" class="reference" style="line-height: 1; unicode-bidi: -webkit-isolate;"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nancy_Jacobson#cite_note-hotline-1" style="text-decoration: none; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(11, 0, 128); outline: none; white-space: nowrap; background: none;">[1]</a></sup>&nbsp;She has been the National Finance Chair for Indiana Senator&nbsp;<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evan_Bayh" title="Evan Bayh" style="text-decoration: none; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(11, 0, 128); outline: none; background: none;">Evan Bayh</a>&nbsp;since 1995, and was Finance Chair of the&nbsp;<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democratic_National_Committee" title="Democratic National Committee" style="text-decoration: none; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(11, 0, 128); outline: none; background: none;">Democratic National Committee</a>&nbsp;(DNC) and&nbsp;<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democratic_Leadership_Council" title="Democratic Leadership Council" style="text-decoration: none; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(11, 0, 128); outline: none; background: none;">Democratic Leadership Council</a>&nbsp;(DLC) under President Clinton.
