Obama Wrap-Up

Ghana Log 12

I feel like I am following this guy around.

So far, I have had seven published stories about Barack Obama. Three were on NYC Pavement Pieces, one (about Obama political buttons) for the New York Daily News, one in Socialist Worker, one in amNew York, and, as of yesterday, one in The New York Amsterdam News.

I also got my first ever photo credit for a story in The AFRican Magazine.

I also have written a lot about his policies on my blog. I even had a poll asking visitors if they cared about him visiting Ghana (72 percent said "Yes" and 27 percent said "No").

My personal views on the political system in the United States are much different than the president's supporters so I don't want to risk this blog becoming an "Obama blog." Regardless, I'm happy for each and every visitor to The Mid-Twenties.
