Obama-rama!

by Leslie Patson | 11th February 2008

My amazing brother John inspired me to write this post. Clearly the title tells you where I stand (and him too!). If we want our country to be “cozy” hahaha…then this is the man to do it! Obama has such amazing leadership qualities, I am just blown away. Here are just a few of his mega inspiring quotes:

Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for. We are the change that we seek.

BARACK OBAMA, speech, Feb. 5, 2008

What Washington needs is adult supervision.

BARACK OBAMA, fundraising letter, Oct. 2006
_______________________________________________________________________________
We live in a culture that discourages empathy. A culture that too often tells us our principle goal in life is to be rich, thin, young, famous, safe, and entertained.

BARACK OBAMA, speech, Jul. 12, 2006
_______________________________________________________________________________
We need to offer the American people a clear contrast on national security, and when I am the nominee of the Democratic Party, that’s exactly what I will do. Talking tough and tallying up your years in Washington is no substitute for judgment, and courage, and clear plans. It’s not enough to say you’ll be ready from Day One – you have to be right from Day One.

Spread the word guys, donate money, do whatever we gotta do to elect BARACK OBAMA!

    Hi Leslie.

    I don’t know if you remember me. The last time I saw you was when I visited you all in October ’82, (I know – GULP!), at your Bundy address I think. I worked with John at The Lion’s Share.
    I decided today to Google John, and I found your blog first. I have been just really enjoying the images and descriptions of your travels, home, etc. You still have a wonderful sense of design. I gather you’re still in LA.
    My husband of 8 years, Spencer & I live outside of Chicago. I have a landscape design business in its fourth year which I just love like nothing else. I also paint, (especially in the winter in Chicago, when there’s no gardening to do!). The website SHOULD be up soon. My husband and webmeister is pretty busy with his real job, but we’re close to being up and ready!
    Anyway-I enjoy your cozy blog, and I was just thrilled to see yours and John’s faces after all these years!
    Please email me back and give John my email. I would just love to catch up with you both!

    Fondly,

    Deb DeSalvatore Drayton

    P.S. GO OBAMA! That’s my senator, and hopefully my next president!
