I do!  I do!

Unfortunately, I have school and therefore will be in Boston, working only virtually through phone banks.  If you are at all interested, please contact OFA.  I had a great time over Spring Break in Philly and GOTV in New Hampshire was quite an experience.

An Email Sent to me from Obama for America:

Dear Amy,

In the past few weeks, thousands of people from all across the country have traveled to Pennsylvania to help grow our movement.

Thanks to supporters like you, we registered tens of thousands of new Democrats and built a base of support that will help Barack in the primary on April 22nd.

Now we need to make sure all these new voices are heard.

Sign up to take a trip to Pennsylvania and help Get Out The Vote for Barack:

Our campaign has always relied on grassroots supporters to build our movement and spread the word about Barack Obama.

The steps that we’re taking right now will help us do more than win an election — they will empower ordinary Americans to join with their friends, family, and neighbors in believing that together we can make a difference.

No prior political experience is necessary. All you need is a hunger for change and a willingness to turn your enthusiasm into action.

Make a difference right away for Barack in Pennsylvania:

Thank you for your continued support,

Angela

How to be President

Want to know the way to be President?  Check out how Obama answered the question as reported from First Read:

At a town hall today, a second-grader asked Obama how exactly one gets the opportunity to run for president.

“Here’s what you gotta do,” the presidential hopeful told the boy, boiling the process down to few simple steps.

1. “You have to work really hard in school and get really good grades.”
2. “Who is this your grandma?” Obama asked the boy. “You have to do everything that grandma tells you to do.”
3. “When you get out of school, then you gotta go to college.”
4. “After you go to college, you have to hopefully find a job that’s helping other people, so that people appreciate that you’re helping them, and they’ll say that Michael will make a good president some day.”

“If you do all those things, then you just might be a president some day,” Obama told young Michael.
