Election 2008

The 2008 Election is huge! It's huge because we have a Black man running as a Democratic nominee and a woman running as the Republican nominee for vice-president. That means that no matter what, whoever win this election, it will be the first time ever. That's exciting. But, it's also huge because this country needs change, and it needs it fast! We're still in a war that we're not winning. The economy is going farther downhill every day! The number of people in poverty continues to grow yearly! There are problems and we need change!

In the Los Angeles area I haven't seen many people with stickers on their car. I understand because I don't want stickers on my car either. But, I also haven't seen many people wearing pins or shirts for their favorite candidate. Am I just not looking in the right place?

The reason I brought this up is because when I was in Seattle, I saw Obama and Biden pins and shirts EVERYWHERE! People behind the registers at the airport had pins. Waitresses and Waiters at restaurants at the Pike had pins for Obama as part of their "flair." Students and parents that attended the National College Fair that I was at outnumbers those that didn't have pins or shirts on! The city of Seattle is very supportive of Obama and it's great to just see so many people caring about this election!

33 days until the election! California people - if you're not registered to vote, you still have 19 days! Get on it now!
