Barack Obama Chooses VP Today

I’m anxiously waiting for Barack Obama to sent me a text message declaring his pick for Vice President.

Last night I was reading his The Audacity of Hope: Thoughts on Reclaiming the American Dream (Vintage) and realized that I DEEPLY care who he picks as VP.

I realized I am pretty attached to the idea of being represented and I want him to pick a woman.

So I sent him a drunken email.

Today we’ll find out if enough women like me sent such emails or if we stood passively by and waited for him to pick yet another bald white male politician.

Did you sign up for the text message announcement?

Did you send him a email declaring your wishes?

Will you be upset if he doesn’t choose a woman?

Dear Friend,

Well, we’ll see how much you do want the women’s vote in this country. Anxiously anticipating his text message. . .
