Obama Supporters: After that Brilliant Speech the Time to Donate is NOW!
That will send the loudest message! Obama today showed what REAL leadership is, the courage, eloquence and intellectual fortitude to not run away from the Wright scandal but deal with it head on and get at the root of the issue! I have no doubt that this is the man for our time. This country needs a president that can uplift, inspire and heal the racial divisiveness that has plagued this country for so long. I'm off to donate, and I hope everyone chooses to do the same.

Obama '08

2. Who has a MyBarack page that needs donations?
This would be a good thread on which to post it, no?

Not sure if I can do more, but maybe the husband can ;)

ETA: Another way we can donate is by making calls, canvasing, etc :)

6. Donated this morning!
And will again on friday.

Let's make this a banner month!

Tell your virgin friends to donate 25 apiece.

Use it at the bar:

'Hey, this round of drinks is on me, and in return, go donate to the unity-train."

Love boat!

Yes We Can!

Hope Flies!

DONATE!!!

10. it's cool - you're in excellent company.

It's called PATRIOTISM.

14. hmm, that's an interesting thought.
I was thinking more like it was simple hope for this country.
But maybe that's what patriotism feels like?

I must say I haven't ever felt patriotism in my whole life that I'm aware of.
Especially coming of age when we were being torn from our homes and sent to die in an unjust war for no good reason.

16. I know that feeling too!
And that's why I'm a Patriot for the first time, cause I always rejected JINGOISM, since it always seemed to reject our core humanity...

But for once, the man who could be leader of the US actually shares my human ideals... And he's under attack...

Now, I can be a patriot. Cause I want my country back, and I'm willing to fight alongside this leader to achieve these ends.

15. I'm giving above and beyond what I can do, because Obama went above and beyond to try to heal this
nation. A day I will never forget.

20. When you donate, think about
clicking on one of the MyBarackObama pages in the sig lines.

That way, a fellow DUer gets closer to their goal - usually just one or two hundred dollars - and your click goes directly to the Obaman donation page.

The only difference is that a fellow DUer gets to feel like they're helping, too.

KittyKat has one, and so does Georgie_92.

Anybody else have one that needs a boost?
