8 days to go and I cannot wait.
I'm obsessed with this election.
I'm obsessed with Barack Obama winning this election.
I'm obsessed with Barack Obama NOT winning this election.
I think about him, and this election and what it means all day every day.
I watch CNN and FOX round the clock.
It has affected how I eat, sleep and interact with people.
I find myself counting how many people have Obama/Biden stickers on their cars.
I find myself counting how many people have mccain/palin stickers on their cars.
I find myself wanting to pull the mccain/palin sticker people over
and shake them and interrogate them.
And ask them WHY?
I'm afraid.
I'm afraid that black people won't vote.
that white people won't vote.
that the white people that will vote
won't vote for Barack.
even though they too are losing their homes and don't have health care.
I'm afraid that the polls are getting too close.
that they'll cheat.
I'm nervous.
I'm nervous about election day.
And what'll happen when Barack's named President.
And what'll happen if he isn't.
I'm anxious.
I'm anxious to get this over with.
I'm anxious to cast my vote.
to make my voice heard.
I wish that Barack wasn’t black.
glad that he is
just wish that he wasn't.
that race wasn't a factor
and we could just focus on the issues.
I wish that there was an antibiotic for ignorance.
But the ignorant wouldn’t even take it.
They wouldn’t know that they needed it.
I'm elated that Barack is running for President.
I'm elated that he's running such a classy and dignified campaign.
that he believed in himself, in us,
and this country enough to do so.
I'm voting for Barack because he speaks to me
I believe he'll speak for me.
I'm voting for him because he's wants to
create the America that I want my sons to grow up in.
I'm confident that he'll make a change.
I know for sure that he is the man for this job.
I know for sure that if Barack runs the country
like he ran his campaign we're going to be fine.
I know for sure that the time is now.
