Official Guilford County organizational meeting tonight for Obama


Tonight saw the Gordons make their way over to Bennett College here in Greensboro for a 7:00pm meeting with official Obama campaign organizers to plan the next few weeks before our May 6th North Carolina Primary. The Obama office in Greensboro will open this coming Monday and the organizers and office holders are coming in from all over the country. Instead of a "top down" approach, this is a "bottom up" organization where the big shots ask us for our local ideas and then guide us to achieve our goals. It is impressive just how grassroots this whole campaign is. Really.

As you can see from the photo, many many many people came out to volunteer and work the pavement to get the good senator elected. It was yet another inspiring get-together of voters and folks who yearn for positive change.

The deadline to register to vote in the May 6th Primary is April 11th, so our main focus these next two weeks is REGISTERING PEOPLE TO VOTE. The Gordons will be hitting the ground running with voter registration forms to make sure people's voices will be heard, whatever their political affiliation.

These are truly exciting times.
