Seriously. My icon doesn't lie. I am so stoked.

I've been following the dude for a while now (not in the literal stalker sense) and I've been nothing short of impressed by him. Awesome awesome awesome.

Is it weird that I want to icon him? Haha.

*adds to list of endless shit I want to do*

NO. It's not weird at all! (Because I would totally snag icons of him lol)

DUDE. Thank you! (You know how much I adore you, right ;D)

Haha, I have a vague idea.

I'm so gonna make a batch of Barack icons now. Haha.

*adores you right back*

I couldn't resist. New icon post up now with tons of Barackage. (Yeah, I just made up a new word.)

I´m not from US but it´s great to know that if Democrats win *crosses fingers* a woman or a black man will be president.

That´s important! I hope that some day there will be no differences because of the race or the sex.

I agree completely.

So who is he exactly? And don't yell at me for that because I doubt any other Aussies know either. :P

He's a democratic US Senator from Illinois. He's been getting a lot of notice ever since he became Senator which is kind of rare considering how fresh he was. I THINK it was summer of last year that TIME magazine posted his face on their cover (icon I'm using now) - but the text where I've put '08 actually said, "The Next President." And ever since then he's been getting this monumental buzz and long story short, he officially announced his candidacy for president yesterday.

I love just about everything he says and his track record proves that it's not just talk. He gives me hope. I think we need that right now.
