Excitement Build in Preamble to Democratic Convention
By Lon Siedman, Democratic delegate from Connecticut
Melissa and I woke up before the sun this morning to begin our journey to Denver. Thanks to the two hour time difference we picked up some extra time to explore the city before the craziness that is the Democratic National Convention begins tomorrow.
The energy level here is already noticeably higher than 2004, and I am only first sitting on the shuttle bus that’s taking us to the hotel! I’m riding with delegates from Oregon, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and probably a few other states. Everybody is excited about what the next several days will bring.
With all of the flash and glitz of a nationally televised convention, it’s easy to forget the millions of people across our nation who volunteer their time to our democratic process. Some focus on campaign work, others run for local office themselves. Regardless, it’s the tireless work of volunteers everywhere that forms the foundation of the Democratic message we will be taking home from Invesco field on Thursday night.
Many delegates here are experiencing a convention for the first time, having worked for years in the trenches of local politics. Others only recently became involved but started early on Barack Obama’s campaign - some even before he officially declared himself a candidate.
I hope to bring you the stories of some of these tireless volunteers, many under 30 years old, who are now here in Denver representing the members of the Democratic Party from their states. You’ll see that our party is not about superdelegates and insiders, but hardworking people who are working to make a positive difference in their community. I can’t wait to share their stories with you.
According to the lawsuit Obama is not even a citizen of the USA and probably will be stripped of being a senator from Illinois before this is over. He also might do jail time. Typical corrupt Chicago politician. you can read the lawsuit itself right here on the internet……
you can read the lawsuit filed against obama on the internet………

The DNC better distance itself from Obama as soon as possible. Both are in deep trouble for FRAUD AND CORRUPTION…….. THIS LAWSUIT COULD ROCK THE WORLD…..
There is mass confusion at the convention as the delegates are being told to vote in their hotels for the nominee and that that vote will be binding on the floor of the convention. Delegates are very nervous. Please report the news as it is happening, not some fictional account! Where are the journalists?

Whaaa…He’s in Pakistan?
Umm…hmm…I’m not gonna go there and here’s why: because Pakistan is a sovereign nation…
Who wants nukes? Line up behind the tall guy with the turban and AK-47…
It’s very difficult for me to get excited about Obama. From his actions and words I believe he is more of a Marxist than a person who believes in the American dream. I believe he is also a racist. How can an intelligent man like him attend a church led by Reverand Wright and not be aware of the hatred and blame preached against whites? Is a family with 4 children living in New York City making payments and saving for college rich if the family income is $250,000? I don’t think so. If it is rich then what is Bill Gates?
First the olympics now the dncc. This should put the Nielson ratings in the tank.
Has this lawsuite been filed? I see no Civil Action No. Also, wouldn’t this be a criminal case for fraud?
If this is true, when was it filed. If it is true I would hope this becomes very public very soon (but perhaps the Republicans already plan on exposing this sometime just before election). If this is true the DNC’s credibility will be blown right out of the water.
When will this be made public? When is it going to trial?
Excitement Build in Preamble to Democratic Convention?
Head line should read:
Excrement Build in Peamble to Democratic Convention!
Tommy,
Do you believe everything you read! The lawsuit is by a former Clinton supporter, who can’t get
over the fact that she lost. What a waste of time and money! When he could be using his time
and money to help turn this country around by helping to make sure that MCcain doesn’t get elected.
OBAMA/BIDEN ‘08
HOPE!!!!
