The Campaign for Change RV is back out on the trail! The RV is coming to towns all over Colorado letting people know they can vote NOW.
As we headed up into the mountains we stopped at our Jefferson County Headquarters in Golden. Volunteers were there making phone calls and preparing for canvasses this coming weekend. The weather is supposed to be great and they are hoping for a great crowd.
We talked with Arica, one of the volunteers in the office. She came all the way from Orange County, California and has taken a month off of her job to help get Barack elected.
He represents the America I was taught America was supposed to be. I was raised that way but I never saw it. I never got to be a part of something big.I told my husband that if he gets the nomination I would go work for his campaign. He said, "sure sure," but I told him, "I need to know that you're hearing me. If he gets the nomination, I'm going to work for him."
Senator Salazar was quick to lead by example and made some phone calls to voters in Jefferson County.

In ninth grade, geometry was a problem. There was talk of golden sections, golden ratios, golden rectangles, bricks in Fort Knox, but there may as well have been a golden goose writing on the black board behind the teacher's chair
because I couldn't see them. I couldn't see anything on the blackboard that wavered for me like an overheated blacktopped road. I saw only vague blurs, the possibility that something had been there, a mirage of math, reduction to ghosts and apparitions. I saw only residue. Compromised seeing still proliferates. Some Americans, some world citizens and their struggles are invisible to others.
The solution was a trip to the optometrist's office where I was outfitted with corrective lenses that rewarded me with resolution and clarity the next time that I was in class. I was no longer deadlocked in an unethical nearsightedness that had excused me from having to care about what was too far away from me to matter.
Our nation needs corrective lenses so that we can see clearly in order to behave responsibly instead of operating recklessly. No license to operate the political vehicle that drives the nation art home and abroad without corrective lenses.
Obama is a welcomed new pair of spectacles in which to be seen differently and from which to see both differently and correctly.
This past Thursday, Colorado for Change held a roundtable discussion with residents of Golden, local business leaders, and renewable energy experts to discuss this country's energy future and what is being done locally to fuel the growth of the alternative energy industry here in Colorado. Moderated by Colorado State Senator Chris Romer, Chairman of the 2007 State Senate Select Committee on Renewable Energy, the panel consisted of Jeff Probst, the CEO of Blue Sun Biodiesel, Kim Jordan, the CEO of Fort Collins’ New Belgium Brewing Company, and Brad Collins, the Executive Director of the American Solar Energy Society.
“Going forward, the business sector and government must come together to provide the necessary incentives to move to a green economy. With a sustained and shared effort by our government, our businesses and the American people, we can confront this national challenge and build a clean energy economy that benefits everyone.”
