DEL.ICIO.USObama staffer rallies Rockdale
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
If you needed another example that Barack Obama’s campaign believes Georgia can be in play in November, one was given Saturday in Conyers.
Jeff Ingram, regional field director for three Metro Atlanta counties, told nearly 100 Rockdale County Democrats that the Democratic presidential hopeful will work to organize, register and turn out voters here. And not just because it’s good for Obama.
“Turning out the vote for Barack Obama turns out the vote for candidates up and down the ballot,” said Ingram, who leads field efforts for Obama in Rockdale, DeKalb and north Fulton counties.
But, no, Ingram offered no clues or hints of that rumored July 7 visit to Atlanta from Obama himself.

Dear American Voters, reporters, media. professionals, political parties, and presidential Nominees,
Subject: Presidential Temperament
Please talk about and “Compare And Contrast” the ” Presidential Temperament” of our Presidential presumptive nominees. I will also request and plead to the nominees themselves [ Hon. Senator McCain and Obama ].
Our nation has been applying this yard and stick tor the appointments and confirmation process of our Supreme Court Justices nominees.
Our Greatgrand Nation Foundations are as under: Family, friends, fellows, faith, funds, fun, with fairness & freedom And without fear, favor, and failure.
It will be disgrace and shameful if the nominees and media will not look into this critical and crucial aspect under current challenging times and circumstances facing our country and the Globe.
Please America and citizens USA wake up and ask to compare and contrast the ” Presidential Temperament” of our presumptive presidential nominees.
Yours sincerely,
COL. A.M.Khajawall [Ret]. Disabled American Veteran Forensic psychiatrist, Las Vegas, Nevada.

He rallied Rockdale? What’s in Rockdale but the projects? Obama rocking Rockdale is about like saying Cynthia McKinney is still popular in the ghetto. Duh.

There are no projects in Rockdale. Just a lot of empty houses.
