I just wanted to share with you my own story about a dad who, well, has undergone his own amazing conversion/transformation to voting for Obama. This is my first diary and I hope you will bear with me.
At 43, I never thought I would see the day that my father would VOTE, let alone vote for a black man. He will be 78 years old this November and today when I asked him what he would like for his birthday, he said "I want to see that young man get elected President".
I nearly fell off my chair. Had I even had an inkling that this would be his response, I would never have taken that sip of Pepsi just before he answered-- just an FYI, Pepsi burns like HECK when it comes out your nose!
