What are you doing to get Obama elected

It's nice to see people energized and eager for the election. I used to be pretty active in local politics and always volunteered for campaigns, but pretty much stopped that in 2000. My little girl has been an Obama fance since about July of last year and while it took me awhile to get onboard, I'm here. She's excited about the chance to volunteer for the campaign, so I'm reconnecting with old contacts to see what I can do locally.

I'm wondering if anyone here is volunteering or doing anything to get Obama elected. If so, what are you doing? What's the most creative thing you've been a part of? Do you have any tips for 5 year olds?

I volunteered to man a phone bank & make some calls, but when I got the list of phone banks in Arkansas, they're in Little Rock, Hot Springs, & Fayetteville. In other words: every quadrant of the state EXCEPT northeast...where I live. Booo.

My dad has a McPain sticker on his truck, so for the first time ever I"m putting a political bumper sticker on my car in retaliation. I shall be sporting an Obama sticker and all his Republican friends will ask him about his weird daughter. Mwa ha ha.

I think I'm probably going to end up donating to his campaign, since there isn't a lot else I can do.; ▶ Reply to This
