3. Well, I'm gonna do what I can to help you get it.......
My daughters who are 20 and 18 are fired up as well.

We will get this done. And you are certainly doing your part.

It will take each and everyone of us doing all that we can....and taking up the slack for those who don't know any better.

Thank you for that.

10. Thank you! Its Time For Us To Take Back Our Government...
...I've started up my giving as well once the primaries have ended. I also started giving to the DNC, as well. However, what really inspires me are folks like yourself, who understand what is at stake, and how this election affects each of us on a very personal level. If you guys can do it, then damn it, so will I. It gives me hope that I am not alone in my concerns about where our country is headed, and that there are other folks who are stepping up, putting aside the MSM-induced apathy and cynism, and believing, not just Obama or the Democrats, but in the ability of people like us to make a difference.

11. I just love this idea of everyone giving a little.
One guy giving a million is difficult to find and may possibly be illegal. But a million people giving a dollar, talk about using money in a democracy, why that, to me, is the only way to fight the corporations' financial influence.

Obama just had his lowest month yet, but it was low enough for McCain to equal and AOL news was touting that as a victory for McCain. So I had to give to Obama. I'm sure next month's total will not equal what McCain was able to get from his CEO and corporate donors.
