I get email from Barack Obama asking me to work for his campaign?

abc. asked:


Email said that I have to go to Ohio and knock on doors to generate support. It also said, no work experience necessary and that there is a goal to knock on 1 million doors in Ohio before the primary takes place.

Would this be volunteer or paid work?
i’m 20 year old college student

   A lot of his volunteers get paid. Call the office and check it out, my little sister works his campaign and she is getting paid, uh - this is her first job too.

   Barack Hussein Obama is known to recruit the young and impressionable to spread his evil Islamo-fascist ideals of universal healthcare and ending war.

   He has no shame.

   It would be volunteer work. If you are an Obama supporter, their rationale is it’s work you’d be happy to do for free.

   I have no idea. It’s probably a call for volunteers. Campaigns typically do that.

    Most college kids are considered left wing Democrats at heart so he is TARGETING you and trying to get your vote. You normally have to go to his website and give them your email but he might be canvassing all college kids too. He can get your name from a paid list. We’re all for sale to everyone for a price. He’s asking for volunteers. He needs to keep the costs down. Don’t waste your time.
    Nader is going to mess him up and with a bit of luck might take it from McCain too. I’m thinking I like Nader but I still have to check out his website, but I **** to read those things b/c most politicians lie, or later change their minds, about that in which they believe.
    I’m getting the feeling that Obama is The Chosen. Read Grisham’s book The Brethren and you’ll see why I am wondering about Barrack. It seems like it was written after his campaign. Hmmmmm. Much ponderance required.

    Vote Nader. Peace to all. Read The Secret, by Byrne, and then change the world!

    Volunteer of course. Obama’s not going to give you a cent. He expects you to contribute to his campaign.

    don’t waste your time doing someone else’s work. who will benefit with this, you? i don’t think so. obama will benefit for this, not you, you’re a fool they want to play with. you got better things to do, than doing someone else’s job. be smart. don’t be fooled by this.
