Chaz and Doug (4.00 / 3)

Chaz and Doug rock.  Idealism that won't change.

I'm both surprised and humbled by this. (4.00 / 1)

Thank you for the kind words, for the fund-raising plug, for contributing, and for the generous comparison to the future President and the future Senator.

Next weekend, I, as well as many others, will begin participating in a summer swing state program known as the Obama Organizing Fellowship (of course, I will be stationed right here in the great State of New Hampshire).  For the time being, I'm volunteering for the New Hampshire Senate Democratic Caucus, a far less glamorous, but also very important cause.  I'm proud to know that, in some small way, I'm helping those two great Americans get elected, and in doing so, helping to make our state, our nation, and our world a better place--and that's what activism is all about.

For my own campaign, though I have in the works a somewhat novel set of proposals that I've tentatively titled the Granite State Initiative; this will form the cornerstone of my platform and of my agenda.  When it's fully developed, you all will be among the first to know.

In the meantime, I need to raise some serious cash.  I encourage you all to click any of the links in Dean's original diary to do that, if you are so generously inclined, and to visit my website by clicking on the logo in my signature.
