um, can we please talk about how it’s totally awesome that max wood’s opening this mug up? this is change i can believe in, frrlz.

I did not see max wood. He must have been making a ham run. Its possible that I missed him in the crowd. I would call duval for hopy now but that would just motivate the nose band aid crowd. Wait…

max wood has rocked it for the campaign! a big ol yippy yi yay for max!

I have a coworker who wants to get involved with
the campaign, but he does not have access to the
internet. Do you have a phone number he can call
to talk to someone at the local (Jacksonville)
office? Thank you.

Patricia- I tried to find a number too and couldn’t find one. I have called some friends that I know are involved in the campaign so I will post as soon as I have it. I know there are plenty of lines and things for your friend to do.

Main number – 425-3976 – if you get the answering machine a message is no good so then try Shannon at 535-0794 or Max at 386-453-7589

Do you have any local headquarters in the Mandarin area?

Des,
Call the number in post 6 and ask. I bet they do.

what kind of help do you need in florida should i come down to help??

I am looking for Obama signs for my yard. Can I stop by and gt them at the headquarters? If so, is there a charge?

I hava found it hard to find an Obama/Biden yard sign in this city which is awashed with McCain/Palin signs. Are there any available at the campaign headquarters?

paco. i am leaving you one at burro bags. 1520 main. may want to call or email to make sure the guys are there before making a trip. i got a bunch last night and was nearly out before I made it to the car. i am going to try to have some more avail. so hang tight duval.

I am looking for Obama yard signs. I called the Main number but no one answered. If someone knew where I could get it, it is really appreciated.

I am wanting Obama yard signs to counter McCain signs springing up in my Mandarin neighborhood. Where can I get a few? I am on a big corner lot with lots of traffic.

These things are a hot commodity.perhaps the only one. I got a few at a debate party. Before I even got them to the car the hotel staff wiped me out. If I find another bunch I will post for pick up at the burro shop on main. In many places kids are making their own. Which I think is a nice touch. Good luck rocking your block.

I would check the DCDEC.

Duval County Democratic Party
4811 Beach Blvd., Suite 103
Jacksonville, FL 32207

if they have any its probably around 5 bucks…with some money going back to the campaign

Please remember that the shortage of signs is because of a decision the campaign made to allocate its resources in other more effective areas.
To me…putting staffers on the ground all over the country seems like a much better way to spend campaign resources. its certainly paying dividends in Florida.
Also, there are tons of designs available on the campaign website to facilitate anyone making thier own signs.

I NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD SEE THE DAY!

by David De Jesus

As a human being that has been kissed by the sun

I thought that this day would surely not come

For when we was young there was so little hope

It was all we could do just to bear it and cope

Some turned drinking others to dope

The rest were just happy and dumb

Then came a smart Martin who said he had dreams

He said things should be different and not stay as they seemed

So we followed, we marched, we let out a roar

Little did we know what was really in store

Dogs biting, cops beatings, being hose down to the ground

We stood there and we took it

For a new way must be found

Things changed in some places but not so in all

So early one morning there was a phone call

They said to smart Martin shut up or be dead

He wouldn’t shut up so they filled him with lead

The movement stopped moving it all came to a halt

They all pointed fingers but no one found fault

And like headless chickens we all ran around lost

But now there is a plan

A man they call Obama, I know the name it sounds strange

But He’s talking about doing, about bringing on change

For whitey, for blacky, for one and for all

You hear what he’s saying, why not answer the call?

His youth is against him, experience so so

But with your support and your backing forward we shall go

The White House is the objective, equality the aim

So come on everybody, join in on the voting game

It counts this time not like the last

I state this fact for sure

For the failures of elections pasted

They have surely have found a cure

So on Election Day I hope and pray

These words you’ve taken to your heart

And cast your vote, to whomever casted

But show them that you’re doing your part

I have tons of obama yard signs; i bought them directly from the vendor because i could not find them anywhere either; email me at barbaraenglish12@aol.com if you want them. they are $4.

We would like Obama signs for our yard, Pls advise as to how and where we can get them.

Thankyou

We would like Obama signs for our property, How can we obtain them.

Try the Obama Headquarters in Jacksonville at 904-425-3976

I have 250 yard signs to sell at $4. Call me at 755-2554 if you want some or stop by the Mandarin Obama office on Phillips Hwy across from the Regal Cinemas movie theater. The address is Gazebo Avenue and you will see a big Webster University sign and the Obama Change sign. acslWhythemI

Obamas campaign is awash in cash. They would not “give” you a sign to save your life. There is or was one on my street somebody stole it night before last.
After visiting Obamas hdqtrs at ground zero of the murder capital of Fla. I’m reconsidering my vote. That’s not a racist statement thats a fact. I quess Obama’s people think there are no white Democratsin Fla. Maybe there aren’t many but there is one less.

DLM

What? You want a handout?

Springfield is the murder capital of Fla. Good tie in. Not one bit true but why let facts dillute your drivel. Its like tying Osama to Iraq. Idiots might believe it. Real dipshits will eat it up.

There is no one that stupid to convert here lady!

and Congratulations Joey!

Only drivel here is what is coming out of your mouth. Jax is the murder capital of florida and Springfield and surrounding areas is where its happenning. Read the paper more often it might improve your language skills.

Oh! The paper? It sucks. But even they know the difference between main st and where the murders occur and where the landlords of those gardens live.

Eureka! Ortega! Come on pretty momma, the arms of Cleveland, who’s payin? Who’s playin. We know who is makin. All the real dough. For real though.

What about your signs man?

And it is dribble. I will admit to dribble. Good luck with your project.

I went along for the ride with Howad Dean in 2004

….all the way to WYOMING,NEVADA, WASHINGTON D.C…Yeearrghhh!!!

I kept a collection of signs, patches, buttons, pens, and “Meetup” schwag that I hope to show my children one day. I want them to understand the context of President Obama’s historical ascension.
However, if I am blessed with children and grandchildren, what I cannot do is erase the debt, ruin, and shame, spawned these last 4(8) years.

Because “Howlin” Howard Dean and “Gentle” John Kerry LOST!!!

All those DeanforAmerica.com trinkets are mementos of an incredible “movement”…and a failed campaign for change.

Obama has re-tooled and applied many of Trippi’s techniques …(record breaking internet fundraising, rapid online response, and most importantly…in coordination with Chairman Dean and the DNC… the 50 State Strategy) into a WINNING campaign for change.
Obama’s success comes from coupling old school discipline with the tools of the new information marketplace.

The decision to allocate resources to most effectively garner votes is particularly encouraging to someone who watched the idealistic Deaniac movement implode.

spend any time around Obama staffers or volunteers and you will hear this truism…

“Signs dont win elections…VOTES do”

I would much rather show my grandkids my Howard Dean schwag…tell them the story of our times and grandpa’s political education and activism… then open up thier history textbook and teach them the stuff that the editor’s left out about America’s first African American Presdient….

That is worth a little extra effort getting my hands on a yard sign.

I live on the northside of town, in San Mateo. How can I get a yard sign for my eight year old great grandson, who is, believe it or not, heavy into politics. He is staying Friday and Saturday with me, and I would like to know where I can take him to get a sign for his yard. Thank you in advance, phj

Free signs will be available at 5 PM at 1520 main. Also free tour and free speech. Then free beer around the corner but not for 8 year olds. More info at http://www.theurbancore.com
