GOP: Old White Guys

If you watch the Republican convention and thought you'd never seen so many old white men at a convention---- you were right. Here are a few statistics about the Republican convention delegates:
Only 1% were African-American
5% were Hispanic
68% Male
32% Female


If you like the politics of right wing America, vote for McCain.
If you think that there is nothing wrong with the American economy, vote for McCain.
If you want the American agenda to be controlled by old white men and lobbyists, vote for McCain.
If you support continuing the Iraq war and spending $10 billion/month there, vote for McCain.

However, if you know that, as a nation, we can and must do better, you need to help Sen. Obama. Change will not happen with a 72 year old man who is entrenched in Washington and with lobbyists. John McCain is just an older, angrier, more cynical version of George W. Bush.

It is time to get up off the sofa, turn off the TV, and work for Barack Obama. Here in central Ohio, contact the Worthington office at (614) 436-0936 to volunteer. If you want to find a local office in your state, visit the following web page: http://my.barackobama.com/page/content/statepages

Work for change. Volunteer for Barack Obama.
