Bloggin' for Barack

My dear friend has just started a blog about Barack Obama. He's inviting people to submit their own posts about all things Barack. If you'd like to submit something, please send it to this e-mail address: Bloggin4Barack [at] gmail [dot] com. I'll be the one fielding the e-mails, so you'll actually be sending them to me.

This friend of mine knows a lot about politics. He's not an experienced blogger, he's just someone whose soul is on fire this political season, just like a lot of people's, and he's really feeling the Obama hope in his heart. If you are feeling the Obama hope in your heart, too, and feel like you want to shout it from the rooftops or simply make your opinions known, please think about sharing your thoughts. Your post can be posted anonymously or with a pseudonym or with your real name; just specify your wishes in that respect in your e-mail. Your post can be long or short, light or heavy, whatever's on your mind. Or it can simply be a link directing readers to thoughts you've already posted elsewhere, like on your own blog. I think my friend's intention is simply to have a place where Obama lovers can gather and bond in this next intense and exciting week or so and get their thoughts down in a collective place for posterity.

You can read his thoughts on the matter in this post. I think his position is beautifully stated. I'm proud of him for creating this space, and I encourage you, if you feel so called, to take part.
