Change will not come if we wait for some other person, or if we wait for some other time. We are the ones we've been waiting for. ~Barack Obama
Yes, I'm fired up about Obama.
If you feel the same way, this thread is for you. According to the
Super Tuesday poll, we have more than a few supporters here. (May I say, I'm calling the State of LoT's Democratic Primary results - Obama wins with 77%. Now how does our state divvy up delegates?)
So, now it's on to other states. Louisiana, Nebraska, and Washington are up next. Sitting here twiddling my thumbs, I realized I needed to do something to help, even though the action is far from me.
Obama's site has the goods, of course. Ways you can help:
- Donate. I did.
- Urge Edwards to endorse Obama.
- Make phone calls to the states that are coming up. There are ways to do this online, and there are phonebank parties IRL. In Santa Ana they're calling Washington state tonight. I have to admit that I'm not a fan of this strategy, but it's there if you want to go for that.
- Volunteer. I put my name in, and I'll keep an eye on local events - I'd like to help fundraise, if possible.
Yeah, I'm not exactly an activist, which is why I encourage Obama supporters to do just a little something. Our little something makes a difference.
