For the Young and Stupid


Are you between the ages of 18 and 29? Are you an idiot? If the answer to both questions is "yes," the Obama campaign has something you can do while you sit in your parents' basement:
The "For All" initiative asks supporters to post a photo on social networks such as Facebook, Instagram and Twitter that highlights why we are greater together regardless of race, background, sexual orientation or zip code. The campaign will launch "For All" on its Instagram account and asks young people to join in protecting the progress we've made and moving our country forward. These images will be online at barackobama.com/photos-from-the-field/forall.

It's an easy three step process: 1) write on your right hand what progress means to you, 2) put your hand over your heart for a quick smartphone photo, and 3) tweet using the hashtag #forall. Supporters kicked it off with their own photos asking young people to join them in protecting the progress we've made and moving our country forward.
Wow, these guys really are appealing to narrow constituencies: in this case, left-handed18- to 29-year-old idiots.
