I've volunteered for Barack Obama, currently running for Senator of Illinois. My stepdad and I were going around the neighborhood giving people signs to put on their lawns. My stepdad goes up this young man and begins to talk him about Obama and when my stepdad goes to give him a sign he says "oh I don't live around here" But you live in Illinois so what's the problem?
P.S. if Obama wins he will be the 3rd African American to hold a seat in the U.S. Senate.

Mr. Obama's also
making headlines here in Hawaii, his birth state and boyhood home. He's definitely one of Punahou School's most distinguished alums.
Many of us here are hoping that he pulls a victory in Illinois!
To answer the original question, I've volunteered in two gubernatorial campaigns and will be volunteering again for a high school classmate running for a House seat in the state Legislature. I don't like going door to door, however. You can find me pushing the paper at campaign HQ.
