What I don’t get is what all the “Free Obama” stickers and pins are about. I keep up with the news pretty well but I’ve heard nothing about Obama being captured, or imprisoned, and yet all over the internet I see “Free Obama” this, and “Free Obama” that. How can this story have fallen through the cracks? If you have any info, please send it my way. Thanks.

Speaking of Free Obama, I’m wondering when will he be free (for coffee)? I donated a substantial amount of money to the campaign (somewhere between $15 – $20) and since then, Barack has been sending me e-mail updates on his campaign – awesome!

I recently found out that his campaign headquarters are in Albuquerque NM, which is great news because my mom recently moved there! When I found this out I immediately started to reply to his daily e-mails.

“Dear Mr. Barack Obama, What a coincidence – my mom just moved to Albuquerque, maybe we can go out for dinner when I come into town. Now that I think about it, you’re probably pretty busy – maybe coffee will do? Let me know how free you are in October, that’s when I plan on visiting.

Sincerely, Whit Scott”

To be quite honest, I’m a little mad at Obama right now. The dude sends me almost an e-mail a day and I only send e-mail’s back once or twice a week. I gave him $15 – $20! I’d be more then happy to buy his coffee, although I heard he’s been breaking records when it comes to fun raising (by the way fun raising sounds amazing, I totally want to work on a campaign!).

My guess is this all comes down to the Free Obama stickers I keep seeing. I know he has an Internet connection wherever he is being kept, but he obviously can’t get out for some coffee with one of his biggest supporters. If you happen to see Obama anytime soon let him know that I’d still really like to go out, and that I’m not that mad at him – I understand that running for President is not easy (I was the President of the Anti-Social Club in high school).
