I’m tired of news stories, I want to hear yours

With election day literally right around the corner,  it’s critical for Obama camps across the nation to stand up and promote the vote in order to ensure he and Biden make it to the White House in January.  All of the media outlets are bursting at the seams keeping up with the latest stories and tracking the movements of the campaigns.  While that’s all fine and dandy, more than anything else, I want to hear FROM VOTERS your reason for wanting Obama to be your next president.  Was there a specific issue that maybe changed your mind?  Have you backed him since before the election?  What’s the story behind your vote?

 

I could think of nothing else more encouraging and inspiring than to hear the thoughts and views of fellow Obamaniacs.  This posting is open entirely for input, so please, let loose.  

Everyone’s contribution counts!

Just how crazy are you for Obama?

A perfect example of how powerful imagery can be, this poster comes from CRO, an independent campaign supporting Senator Obama.  CRO, whose website can be found at gotellmama.org, offers unique eye-candy with powerful images which can be seen in the form of posters (that you can download for free, print, and post around your neighborhood), and short videos.  For those Obama lovers with a creative side, this is definitely worth checking out.

Excerpt from speech given on Jan 8, 2008

“I will never forget that the only reason I’m standing here today is because somebody, somewhere stood up for me when it was risky. Stood up when it was hard. Stood up when it wasn’t popular. And because that somebody stood up, a few more stood up. And then a few thousand stood up. And then a few million stood up. And standing up, with courage and clear purpose, they somehow managed to change the world.”
