I created this page as a means to get in touch with other tattooed and pierced people who are supporters of Barack Obama, and to reach out to other folks like us who may not seem to be all that approachable to your average campaign volunteer.This page is part of my attempt to do all that I can to personally make a difference, the day has come for us to take a proactive approach to changing the world, the time of waiting for other people to make a difference is long over and the time for action is now.
About Obama:
"I was fortunate to be able to grow up seeing America from varied viewpoints. My childhood was spent in Hawaii and Indonesia. After college I worked as a community organizer on the South side of Chicago focusing on improving living conditions in poor neighborhoods.I came to understand that to truly solve the problems facing our communities, it would take a change in our laws and our politics. I ran and served for seven years in the Illinois state Senate, where I fought for expanding children's health care, providing tax cuts for the working poor and enacting welfare reform. In 2004, I was elected to the U.S. Senate, where I have worked to pass laws securing dangerous weapons and making government more accountable. I have also opposed the Iraq war from the start, and believe that we need to bring our troops home so we can refocus on the wider struggle against terrorism.Of all my life experiences, I am most proud of my wife Michelle and my daughters Malia and Sasha."
