Mormons and Everyone Else in Utah for Obama: (Unite for Change)
Come to our Obamacue! In a predominantly Republican state, many Utahns may continue to vote according to the same old party line. Some Republicans and Independents, however, are beginning to feel that something different is needed in Washington, and wish to join with Democrats in supporting Barack Obama's presidential campaign for change. We believe members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints have compelling reasons to support Obama. Likewise, non-Mormon Utahns who support Obama can unite to make a difference in a state largely influenced by Republicans. Getting together for a summer potluck barbecue is a perfect opportunity to discuss the upcoming election and unite for change. Please include what food you can bring, salads, drinks, buns, etc. when you respond to the invitation or sign up. One more point ought to be made: In calling this gathering "Mormons and Everyone Else in Utah," some may feel marginalized, discounted, or otherwise overlooked. As a member of the LDS Church who supports Obama I can feel your pain. My reason for including "Mormon" in the event title is to specifically reach out to other Mormons like myself who support a Democratic candidate, running against the current of most Utah Mormons. A little extra nudge is needed, and I hope none feel uninvited based on the event title.
