Tomorrow (I am writing this Saturday night) I will be about this close to the President.  I am volunteering at a Clinton-Obama rally in Concord, NH, and my job allows me to be pretty close to the stage.  I am beside myself with excitement.  I will be up at 4:00 and there by 5:30 am.  Hopefully I will be able to sleep tonight!

Besides the warm clothes, gloves, scarves, hats and my iPhone, my pockets will be stuffed with Kleenex because I am sure that I will weep.  I love this man.  To me, he is an incarnation of all that is great and good in this country.  I did not think that I would ever see a leader of such integrity, heart and courage in my lifetime.

Every day that I canvas, with each house that I visit, each phone call I make, I remember his great effort and I strive to meet and support that in the best way that I can.  Have I been disappointed in the past?  Yes, but I have also seen him course correct on issues of marriage equality and gays in the military.   i have seen him grow.  Watching him campaign, I have felt his heart and his honesty.

So tomorrow, I have the gift of standing in that presence, receiving that energy.  By the time you read this, it will be today, and I will be there.
