Call him THE PRESIDENT.

The President needs us, We have to walk a hard road. Just like your parents or grandparents did. When America needed them, they stepped forward.

I have an old old photo of Mom. I remember her stories, depression, then WWII. I would not be able to look at that photo of Mom, knowing her sacrifice. Knowing she spent what was left over from her paycheck to purchase War Bonds. Rationing her food. Living alone, as her husband marched off to Germany. She stepped up. America needed her, she stepped forward. I must too. Are you coming with me?

THE PRESIDENT has asked us to step forward, are you coming with me?

the things I felt, the hidden fire. Deep into the soul of every American. When the country is in peril. We must rally. They are calling us to rally around our President. We are in this together. Only Together can we walk out. Upright or on our knees. Choice is yours, I am going. you coming too?

Registering for a transfer class at my local comm college, they have a new system that covers ALL California community colleges... as you sign up, there's a few steps... apply, financial aid...and REGISTER TO VOTE! I thought it was cool that they are making it so easy for college kids to sign up and GO VOTE!

I plan on doing some canvassing in nearby Nevada next week...
