BARACK OBAMA

OK. Because this is my new blog I must re-state my political position. I could give a two shits about politics because I aint never see nobody in the history book that looked like me. I did however always know how important politics were and how much power they had and because no one that looked like me was hardly in politics...we had no power. period. With this said, you, your mother and all those you associate with need to be registered to vote, verify your registration and of course VOTE on Tuesday, November 4, 2008. Yes I am a BARACK supporter and you should be too. I do not care what color, sex, political party you are, BARACK is the most human candidate we have ever had. I am exhausted with this campaign and the shenanigans mccain and palin have pulled and don't even feel like expressing my frustrations right now. All i can do is support BARACK, and ask you to do the same. Besides the fact that Michelle is the bomb and Sasha and Malia are adorable, I actually understand what comes out of Barack's mouth and feel what he is saying and it actually makes sense. Here's the info, so you can be an informed voter. ps: being an informed voter is sexy. Not being registered to vote and not being able to have a convo about politics is not sexy. step up your game, advance your swagger.
