10. I have to retell this story, it's so funny to me. maybe you too.
I have been watching American politics for a while now and pass on to my husband tidbits here and there. He has seen much of my spittle and disgust over the years over Bush. Our tv has been in danger of flying objects many a time.

He's interested, but doesn't dig in himself, I'm his storyteller breaking newser in that area.

A couple few weeks ago, just after I decided to root for Obama (Kucinich will always be my best guy tho), I filled him in on what was happening, how Obama was doing, the underdog story, etc.

I mentioned that the fundraising in January was spectacular, that Obama was getting unheard of donations from small donors in the Millions of $s and getting people off their couches to participate in the whole volunteer process.

That really pumped him up and he wanted to donate as well. :) He wanted me to get online right that minute and donate!
!!
I said,
I don't think we can, hun.
We're not American.
:rofl:

he is not one to open his wallet easily, so I thought this was hilarious!

16. Guess what, I am not American either.. lol...
Edited on Fri Feb-22-08 11:27 PM by LakeSamish706
Something that I have to add to this post though... I sorta am American in that I have a dual citizenship and own property in the US....

However, regardless of this, I think that it is important for the world that we get a great President in the US this time around because the world depends on this and so do the American people...

He's here on one of those NAFTA Visas that I hope Barack gets rid of!
