Sunday can be the best work day of all. Good coffee, no bothersome phone/email interruptions, and a laid back workflow are the keys to this.

Lessig 4 Obama

This video is a very detailed and intelligent analysis of the differences between Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton, not in their policies but in their character and their fundamental ideas about change.

For those of you unfamiliar with Lessig he is a professor of law at Stanford Law School and founder of its Center for Internet and Society. He is founder and CEO of the Creative Commons and a board member of the Electronic Frontier Foundation and of the Software Freedom Law Center. He is best known as a proponent of reduced legal restrictions on copyright, trademark and radio frequency spectrum, particularly in technology applications. He is also one of the brightest minds in our country.

This is the most excellent explanation of why it is IMPERATIVE that we support the candidacy of Obama that I have seen so far.

Watch it when you have some time and pass it along.

I'm Voting Obama!

I can think of no greater reason to vote for Obama than this rousing speech he gave today at Tulane University. This man needs to be our next President. Louisianians, get out there and vote this Saturday and try to remember the last time Hillary was even here.

Barack Obama represents real change. When was the last time you voted in a Presidential campaign without a Bush or a Clinton on the ticket?

Oh Didn't He Ramble?

Thanks to everyone who came to the St. Anthony Ramble yesterday. It was, as usual, an extraordinary event.
