February 6th, 2008 If you’re like me, you are 28, live in Atlanta, and you’re a Barack Obama sup­porter. But you’re look­ing for ways to get involved in his cam­paign now that he’s won Geor­gia. There are a couple of ways to quickly make a dif­fer­ence in his cam­paign, and the two com­bined take very little time.

First of all, you can donate to Obama’s cam­paign. The Clin­tons recently loaned them­selves $5 mil­lion dol­lars to help fund their cam­paign, and the to keep this race going, Sen. Obama needs everyone’s help to con­tinue rais­ing money at a record pace. As of the time of this writ­ing, we have raised $5.121 mil­lion since last night alone.

This will help offset Hillary and give Obama fur­ther momen­tum head­ing into the pri­mary states this week­end and beyond. Even if it’s only $25, it helps fund one of the most amaz­ing, diverse grass­roots fundrais­ing efforts we have ever seen. The second thing that you can do is spend a half hour of your time in a phone bank for Sen­a­tor Obama’s cam­paign.

Simply log in (or create an account) and you are pre­sented with a list of prospec­tive voters in an upcom­ing pri­mary state. You simply call the person, ask them a few simple ques­tions, and hope­fully you will talk to a fair number of Obama sup­port­ers that you can encour­age to vote or caucus in their upcom­ing event. This if your chance to make a dif­fer­ence in his cam­paign in a small, but very sig­nif­i­cant way.

I hope some of you join me in help­ing! And I promise I’ll tone down the polit­i­cal stuff soon. Daniel Andrews says: February 12th, 2008 at 6: 55 pm Another way is taking part in today’s Money Bomb to cel­e­brate Lincoln’s birth­day.
