Even though it's still the middle of the summer things are getting pretty busy around here. Now that we know that Barrack Obama is the candidate for the Democratic party it is time for the student democrats to take action. Those of us who are still left around here attending classes and working are now ready to really jump in and get things moving. I think that with the nomination season ending at such a late point we are at a great advantage because we don't have to wait around for things to start heating up. Listening to any news program or political discussion it is just as exciting as it was months ago. Around here we are trying to get the office fully functioning to support his campaign and spread his message to those who are undecided or uninformed about the issues.

My job at the moment is the promotional end of the campaign. I have been communicating with a web site about various promotional items such as labeled pens, t-shirts, and mugs. All of the products we are buying are also environmentally friendly and will be sold or given away at various events we hold in the next few months. We don't have any events besides flyering during the summer but when fall rolls around we are going to hit the student population in force to get people on board. We would prefer that people vote for Barrack but the bigger more altruistic goal is to get everyone involved in the democratic process. The more people we can get involved now, there more will continue to vote for the rest of their lives. If we can get students to be interested and feel confident in the democratic process then our jobs have really been done well, no matter who they vote for come November.

Soon we will be up to our necks in students and debates and I for one am extremely excited for that time. Right now we just have to be patient and make sure we plan for a successful campaign and vote in November. I hope to turn this experience I am gaining in to something more later when I find the area of politics I want to jump in to
