Barack Obama, the Democratic Senator from Illinois and presidential candidate, is visiting Santa Barbara today. He's staging a public "grassroots" rally at Santa Barbara City College in the morning, and I'll be there with camera and reporter's notebook in hand.

Later this evening, Obama's scheduled to hang out with Oprah at her Montecito ranch for a big celebrity fundraiser. Sadly, I won't be there with camera and notebook in hand, since it's $2500 per person.

Stay tuned to Courage Campaign for the full story right after Obama's rally...

Obama fan from Italy

Hey! I'm from Italy and one of my Italian friends is in that college, he plays in their football team, he just sent me a text telling me that Obama was there and they were broadcasting his speech all over the campus! I was so excited! He couldn't go, thou, because he had his first game... can't wait to hear how it went!

Let’s celebrate this victory and know that the community we've built together is just the beginning. For people who are searching and excited for a great change the victory last Tuesday night are the one we’ve been all waiting American waiting for.

The election is over and America has appointed a new leader. The people have chosen “change” by electing Barack Obama for the next President of the United States. Whether the United States changes for the better or for the worse, there is no doubt that change is in store for our country. It’s clear that Americans believe Obama will bring a positive change to our country. We’ve heard many of the promises he has made to the U.S. from lowering taxes for the middle class to putting a timeline on the war in Iraq and trimming the federal budget “line by line.” However, Obama also supports the elimination of the payday loan industry. He believes that eradicating the payday loan industry will protect low-income and families in general from falling victims to predatory lenders. On higher ground, it will be a violation to our financial freedom if the option to utilize affordable payday loans is wiped out. Threatening our rights to financial freedom is not a great start to creating positive change.
