The Obama Volunteer Vibe: Punks and Billionaires

By: Jason Carter (View Profile)

“Are you going to vote for him?” my wife asked.

“Oh, definitely. You’d be surprised how many punk bands are backing that guy.” 

Say what you want about the other candidates, but between Ann Cox Chambers and the pizza guy, there is something happening here.

This is a very well written story. Very vivid story, I felt I was there with you. Great Job. I wish I could have been one of the volunteers. I am very proud of him and his family. Stand FIRM and STRONG, Senator Obama.

Barack Obama...wow! Barack Obama...I guess I am the only one who finds that to be unnerving. But what's in a name, really??

Thank you so much for this piece Jason! More people need to read about this participatory process from all races, classes, and creeds that is representing a historical moment in our history. There is definitely something going on, and its not just about the Black people vs. the white people and other folks. This is about change in structure, and a change in the consciousness of American people who want to support a candidate that not only promotes change, but who has a plan and credentials to make it happen!! Thanks again.
