On election day I canvassed in Kansas City....

It was a great way to keep myself from going insane worrying about the election.

Mostly Black and Hispanic neighborhoods. But 80% of the houses I went to, people were not home. Wow, I guess they were WORKING!!! The ones at home were mostly mothers raising their children.

But it was an amazing experience. The best part was asking people "Are you planning on supporting President Obama and Claire McCaskill". The looks I got from most people was like I was asking them a trick question. Like "Who else would I vote for?"

It made me to so happy that people have someone like Obama to vote for to represent their interests.

I guess when you talk about "self deportation" and "wanting more free stuff" you lose the vote of a lot of Americans!

Romney deserved to lose badly!!!
