Military Spouses for Obama! Yes We Can!

Jul 08

6:28 PM

That's right! I got a call from a DNC member last night. She is interested in hearing from military spouses, from this area, that support Obama. I was more than happy to chit chat and we have great ideas and plans to show how both military veterans and spouses want Obama to be our next commander-in-chief. The days of sending secret codes to each other through baseball signals is over my friends...we are loud and we are proud!

Now, first off, if you are interested in participating in our plans please email Susan at mariners@dnc.org and she'll put you on the listserv to be kept up to date on our activities. Or you can shoot me a line at vgalady@aol.com if you have any other questions/concerns/suggestions.

This is our chance to come together and show how much we support our community and our military by helping to elect someone we truly feel will try to make this country, this world, a better place for our children. I'm more excited than when the Dixie Chicks released their latest album I tell you ;-)

Finally, and I'm so sorry to be missing for our trip out to visit Mike in San Diego, but there is a sort of kickoff event:

Hampton Roads Veterans and Military for Obama

Family Potluck BBQ for Change

YES WE CAN (and with your help, we will!)
