Neither Snow Nor Rain…

Last night Sen. Obama campaigned in a very snowy Rochester, New Hampshire, but that did not stop ONE Vote ‘08 from making it out to his event to ensure that the poorest people on earth were heard in the Granite State.

ONE’s Marine, Michael Castaldo shot some great footage of Sen. Obama’s stump speech where he talks about US efforts to fight global AIDS and malaria and help desperately poor countries around the world.

From Africa to New Hampshire, and from Sammi in Seattle, to Debbie in Texas, and beyond…more than 2.4 million people are coming together as ONE to make sure our leaders hear our voices as ONE to save lives and end extreme poverty!

    I’m sorry if this is a duplicate, but my posting from yesterday no longer seems to be here, therefore, I’m reposting it.

    There have been twelve (12) posts on http://www.BarackObama.com between February and October, 2007. This indicates Obama ‘08 supporters also support One’s mission.

    Hey Matthew,

    I was just going through the posts here in the ONE Blog and I happened to notice my name in your post. Although it took me over a week to recognize my name in your post, I want to thank you for the respect you paid me.

    I’m only waiting until the Presidential Primary frenzy starts down here in Texas in about a month (the Primary is scheduled for early March). I have watched what y’all have done in New Hampshire and Iowa and Nevada and South Carolina very closely and hope that we can duplicate some of the ONE fever that y’all have started in these states down here in Texas!

    These politicians have to understand that wherever they go in the USA, ONE members will be there to remind them of our movement to end extreme poverty in our world.

    Take very good care of each other, everyONE. Blessings for the new year.~

    ALWAYS ONE in the Spirit, debbie :)

    FYI folks, I think many people are placing comments on the onevote08.org/blog or the one.org/blog- and then getting confused when their comments don’t appear on both blogs.

    Eric, I believe this is your Obama comment:

    http://www.onevote08.org/blog/?p=338#comments

    You left it on the onevote08 Blog.

    Virginia,

    My apologies for confusing the two blogs. Please feel free to delete my duplications.

    Thanking you,

    Eric
