Since his DNC speech in 2004, Barack Obama has charged us to believe in the spirit of E pluribus unum, Out of many, one. "It's that fundamental belief I am my brothers keeper, I am my sisters keeper, that makes this country work."In that same spirit, I urge you to volunteer to help our fellow Americans as we face Hurricane Gustav. I signed up online to volunteer at 3am and received a phone call at 8am to volunteer at the PMAC on LSU's campus.Please take a moment to go to https://www.lava.dhh.louisiana.gov/ You may also visit http://emergency.louisiana.gov/ for more information.
E pluribus unum... Will you help your fellow Americans?
Go to http://my.barackobama.com/page/event/detail/gplg4d and let me know if you choose to volunteer.

The lyrics go something like this:
A nation is in trouble, in need of a change.
We need a new vision. Someone to take a stand.
Though there are many choices, there is one that has a plan.
Barack Obama, he's our man.
If you're looking for a better day, change is on the way.
Join me when I say, there's gonna be a brighter day...
A change is coming!
