Preparations for Register for Change are moving along quite well. Over the last week and a half, I’ve dedicated myself to contacting the press and organizing the logistics of the event. During that time, I’ve had the pleasure of working with an awesome group of people doing much harder work. From painting signs to collecting supplies, my friends and fellow Dover Plains for Obama members have been awesome. I couldn’t ask any more of them.
If you’re local, you owe it to yourself to come out, collect campaign materials, hold signs, and have some great conversations. We’ve got 24 volunteers signed up on Facebook right now, but I’m anticipating more to follow.
What’s amazing about this whole thing is how many people are fired up and ready to go – people who I wouldn’t have expected. Barack Obama has energized my peers, which is both positive and significant.
The feedback I’ve been getting thus far is amazing. My friends, family, and other community members are very supportive, and I’ve been meeting some really great people. I even received a heartfelt email from one of my old teachers who saw a Register for Change flyer at the local train station.
I love it when a common cause brings people together. It’s great.
