McCain Tried to Ignore and Dismiss Anti War Protesters at National Convention

“Americans want us to stop yelling at each other,” McCain ad-libbed. Senator John McCain would love to ignore and silence the voting public but even in the Republican Party’s National Convention voters spoke out again a never ending war.

While Senator Obama offered a vision of hope and change with his speech last week all Senator McCain could come up with was a weak attack on the man that will soon be our next President of the United States.

With just sixty days before the convention we need every voter to speak to their neighbors so that people understand how important this year’s election will be to our country. We can not afford another four more years of Bush/McCain politics as usual for the richest 1% of the country. The time is now for the middle class voters to rise up and have their voices heard. We need people to stand up and register to vote so that their voices will be heard all the way to Washington and beyond.

This weekend both Saturday and Sunday at the Obama Campaign Headquarters on Central and Carlisle people will be meeting to walk neighborhoods with friends. You could get out and learn who your neighbors are and encourage them to register to vote and to vote by mail. Now is the time for the voting public to speak out and demand change in Washington that will allow the middle class to thrive and rebuild.
