Endorsement

Endorsement

Actually, my ideal president would be Cynthia McKinney. She is one of the few truly genuine politicians out there, and fights honestly and ardently for the silenced and marginalized (aka, us). But, because Green Party candidates are unfairly eschewed from the mainstream media and the national discourse alike, she doesn't stand a chance. That being said, this election is too important for my vote to be squandered, so I've already shipped my absentee ballot for Barack Obama and Joe Biden back to the United States. Please vote for Barack Obama on November 4 -- it's the only way we can avoid the complete and utter collapse of the United States as we know it.


PS: Californians, please vote a resounding "HELL TO THE NO" on Proposition 8.

Please note that this is my own personal presidential endorsement and in no way reflects the opinions or positions of the Peace Corps or the U.S. Department of State.

Oh, Danielle!!! Because of my crizzizzizzizzazzyyyy schedule at school, I don't know if I can make it all the way to Ouaga, that weekend! Plus, my sources tell me the Transit House is booked! What the frigsies?!

:-(

Yes, I shaved the beard, but it is already growing back with a vengeance.

You should see how attentive I am to my female students. I AM GIRL EMPOWERING THIS NATION ONE STUDENT AT A TIME. You'd be proud.

Kisses. Don't hate me.

Like you, I'd really love to be able to cast a vote for a third party candidate. It won't happen this time (I'm voting Obama). It probably won't happen in the next election either. I have a good feeling Palin is gearing up to run in 2012. You'd think getting $150,000 would shut her up! But no, she wants more! *SIGH* If Barack Obama isn't elected, we're screwed.
