7. I use to do a lot more.... |
|
But that was when I was young and healthy...
Now it's my turn to play the old "salty" guy to some young kids who are getting their first taste of politics...

20. I know it makes you smile |
|
As it does me.... to see the enthusiasm in our youth.
I have never been actively involved in a campaign before and have found it quite rewarding (although my involvement is minimal and for the most part was registering first time voters where I am employed).
Thank you again.

I wish I had thought of that. You can hit so many more houses with a dedicated driver. This is perfect for you and I'm so happy you get to help!

9. Obama's brilliant. Good for you. |
|
I read a diary at Kos about this. Obama has not left a single stone unturned.
Can you imagine an Obama administration? It just donned on me now that I'm reading your post. Judging from his campaign, it would/will be brilliant.

I'm not that young and spry myself, but I can still answer phones, stuff envelopes and hand out literature at the polling precincts. Or make the snacks and coffee for those doing the heavy lifting.
Feels damned good, doesn't it?

to show those young punks that the old man still has the fighting spirit in him.
I do recommend you name your van, if thats what you're driving, "the love bus."

21. That's great. There is nothing greater than a true sense of purpose. |
|
Keep up the good work and maybe all of us will be rewarded at the polls.
