FWD: lawl!! this is great!!!

How many e-mails forwards do you get a week?

Uh huh.

Now how many of those do you actually read?

That's what I thought.

I open all forwards with the thought, "Why the fuck do you send this shit to me?" So, imagine my surprise when I got a forward this week from a good friend who had some very important points to make. I hardly ever pass along forwards but this one deserved to have a larger audience.

Without further adieu...

Blue --

You'd be surprised how many people you know aren't registered to vote.

Registration deadlines are coming up soon, and we need every single vote we can get to win this election.

Tell your friends, family, and neighbors to check out our new one-stop voter registration website.

Just forward this message.

VoteforChange.com makes it easier than ever to register. Instead of tracking down the right forms, all you need to do is answer a few basic questions and you'll be ready to vote. You can also:
Confirm your existing registration
Apply to vote absentee
Find your polling place
If you don't know your own registration status or you'd like to learn more, take a minute to visit the site right now.

This race is too close and too important to stay home on Election Day.

If you take the time to register and vote -- and make sure everyone you know is registered as well -- we'll be able to turn the tide of the past eight years.

It's people just like you who will transform this nation.

Thanks,

Barack
