Barack in Prince George’s County

Posted by Asian Americans for Obama

Having done numerous summer internships in DC, I know that Prince George’s County, Maryland, is a large Asian American population center.  Sen. Obama will be visiting on October 10; let’s show Sen. Obama that the Asian American community in Prince George’s County supports his message of hope!

From the campaign:

Senator Obama will be accompanied by Representative Elijah Cummings and Maryland Attorney General Doug Gansler.
 

We’re
counting down the days until the early caucuses and primaries in Iowa,
Nevada, New Hampshire, and South Carolina. Victory in these early state
contests will be crucial to securing the Democratic nomination and
marking the beginning of real change in our country.

Tell Sen. Kennedy that Sen. Obama is the one who inspires

Posted by Asian Americans for Obama

According to CNN, Sen. Ted Kennedy is trying to decide who to endorse for the presidency.  "Inspiration," Kennedy said. "I’m looking for a candidate able to
galvanize the country to get things done. I want to find the candidate
who can inspire people. That’s what we need. That’s what our party
needs." 

Write Sen. Kennedy and let him know how and why Senator Obama inspires you, and why he should endorse Obama as the only candidate who can unite the country behind real change:

Posted by Asian Americans for Obama

While I am a little sad that NYC has taken the title for largest Obama rally from my town, Austin, TX, I’m thrilled that the hope that turned out 22,000 in Austin continues to inspire Americans to work for change.

Here’s the video:

Video: NYC Rally

Hey, Austin still beats NYC for per capita turnout, right?
