Obama Wins the Democrats Abroad Global Primary

Barack Obama has won yet another contest. American Democrats living abroad voted for the Democratic nominee all over the world. Read the story here. Obama won about 65% of the vote. He won 79% of the vote in Japan. As someone who lived abroad for 3 years, I know how hard it is to be an American overseas with the very unpopular Bush administration in Washington. Thank you, Democrats Abroad for being involved and for voting for change! Yes we can win back the white house and restore our own and the world's confidence in America.

About Me

My photo
Lima, Ohio, United States
I was born and raised in Ohio. I am a lifelong Catholic Christian who has always been interested in the big questions of life. I have a passion for learning especially Philosophy, Science, Religion, History and Culture. I graduated from the University of Toledo in 2001 with a B.A. in International Relations. I married my soul-mate, Jen in 2001 and we moved to rural Tanigumi-mura Japan where we taught English for 3 years. We moved to California and lived in San Francisco and the Bay Area for 4 years. Tired of sitting on the sidelines, I began volunteering for the Barack Obama campaign in March of 2007 and was eventually hired as a Field Organizer. Through the Obama campaign, I found my calling and moved back to Ohio to continue organizing. In 2009 I helped the field operations of the Keith Wilkowski for Mayor of Toledo race. After that, I was hired as a Regional Field Director for 15 northwestern and north central Ohio counties for the 2010 Democratic Coordinated Campaign. Jen and I are continuing to volunteer as we wait for the next organizing opportunity to present itself.
