Mr Scorpio, Thank you to your brother also, for your service and for your help. My Dad who was a WW2 vet, of Omaha Beach, and passed away last July, saw Obama at the beginning of his journey, and already was talking about this amazing guy who could really do it. He was so crushed and hurt by the disservice done to vets by mocking the purple heart by the other side.

Once again.. THANK YOU!! for everything:patriot::patriot::patriot:

7. Get ready to rock 'n roll! If you haven't participated in a grassroots movement before, it is VERY
satisfying to be involved in such a hands-on experience. The grassroots ppl who get out and canvas or go to voter registrations are critical to this election; it's hard work but it's fun, IMO.

I don't know if you have a particular "focus" for your role, but please look at the map on the attached link to see where your state is regarding voting rights for prisoners, parolees, and felons.

Please come back and post and let everyone know what your experience was like!
