Why This Election is Crucial to LGBT People
By Michael Crawford
Our friends at Towleroad talked with LGBT for Obama founder Terry Bean about why he created the site and how important LGBT voters will be in the November election. Terry is one of the co-founders of the Human Rights Campaign and the Gay and Lesbian Victory Fund and has a lot to say about how important it is that LGBT Americans engage in the campaign to elect Sen. Obama as our next president.
Check out some of the features of the site including the “spread the word” feature that let’s you share with friends and family information about the stark differences between Sen. Obama and Sen. McCain on LGBT issues.
Also very important, is the “donate to Obama now” button. This button connects you directly to the Obama campaign site, but the key thing for our community is that your contribution will be tagged as coming from the LGBT community. Every cent of your contribution goes directly to the Obama campaign. As Terry says in the interview below it is critical that money coming LGBT voters is counted as coming from our community so that the Obama campaign can see clearly the strong level of support that it has from LGBT people.

Of course he is a Thai boxer, he is particularly quick, and UFC has weight classes, so it doesn’t quite compare with the little Japanese karate expert having to fight a 300 pounds “drug enhanced” monster, but I heard those Japanese karatekas of the 1960s were quite used to manly assaults and probably fairly quick as well, so I wouldn’t be as certain about the “tackled, sat on, and beaten senseless” part.

I would like to express appreciation to this writer just for rescuing me from this difficulty. Just after looking out throughout the world wide web and coming across things which are not productive, I figured my entire life was gone. Existing without the solutions to the issues you’ve fixed by means of your guide is a crucial case, and ones that would have in a negative way damaged my entire career if I hadn’t noticed the website. Your primary competence and kindness in controlling all areas was very useful. I don’t know what I would have done if I hadn’t discovered such a subject like this. I’m able to at this moment look ahead to my future. Thanks so much for this expert and sensible guide. I will not be reluctant to suggest the website to any individual who should receive direction about this subject matter.
