Tomorrow brings another primary. I have not participated overly much in the “well oiled machinery” of the Obama campaign, but I know that Teresa and Baratunde are both being active and awesome proponents of his campaign.
My contribution will be a blog post (oooh, big spender, me!).
Here are five reasons to vote for Obama, in no particular order or measure of importance:
- He understands the internet. Read his stances on technology issues.
- Such a huge portion of his campaign money has come from normal, individual donors, which means that as a politician he is beholden primarily to the public.
- Despite what you’ve heard, Obama is an experienced politician and an experienced leader. And he has served as an elected official for longer than Hillary Clinton. In other words, his job has always been on the line.
- By all accounts, Obama is a really intelligent, curious man. It is far more important to have someone who can evaluate and react with innovation than someone who just knows the playbook.
- He is authentic. I have not yet heard him give the answer he thinks someone wants to hear instead of the answer he thinks is correct.
And seriously, I know it’s been said, but if you’re worried about his ability to run something big, take a look at his campaign.
