With the election day coming near and the polls so close, I am getting so anxious to hear the who will be our next president. Personally, I'm voting for Obama. No, not because he's black, but because of what he stands for and how it will effect me. I believe in my heart that Obama CAN WIN this election, but there is a lot of work to be done. Over 33 African-Americans are NOT registered to vote. In the past if you had a felony you were NOT allowd to vote. Well, times have changed. If you have a felony, you ARE allowed to vote. I learned that today when I attended a Women For Obama rally. Tomomrrow I will be doing absentee ballads, Tuesday I will be doing a voter registration drive, and next Saturday I will be traveling to Virginia (battleground state) to register voters. I won't stop there. I will be making phone calls, I will be donating to the campaign. I know a lot of you want to make a change and voting is very important so I encourage everyone to vote on November 4th. Other than that what are you doing to make sure that your candidate is going to be elected?
