It's a question that we are often asked and one that we often ask ourselves; and we never fail to surprise ourselves at how badly we answer it. It isn't that we don't have an answer, because we certainly do. The real problem is that we stand for many things and we never have quite the time to explain them all.

Here for example, is the event I have set up in Fulton: Barack A Que draws Democrats to Flat Branch Park
Dozens of Democrats turned out on Saturday for BBQ and speeches in Flat Branch Park at an event sponsored by MU Students for Obama and MidMO4Obama. Judy Baker, while not yet committed to a Presidential choice, gave a great speech calling on folks like to speak up like Obama and stand up as Democrats promoting Democratic values. On Tuesday October 2nd, State Auditor Susan Montee will be at Courthouse Square at 6:00 PM, as Chair of Women for Obama, to take part in a "Turn the Page in Iraq" rally. October 2nd is the 5th anniversary of the now famous speech Obama gave opposing Bush's war plans. ( categories: Photo Gallery )
