Tuesday

Organizing the Vote

The 2008 Republican National Convention was held the week after Labor Day. In speeches by several participants, Barack Obama was roundly mocked for his experience as a "community organizer."

On September 4, 2008, Barry Crimmins wrote: "Just as Palin wants to turn the entire nation into a paranoid and intolerant small town, Obama must continue his work to turn American voters into a very large, organized community."

Today, President Obama is in a very close reelection race with Mitt Romney, and he will need the votes of a very large, organized community to win.
