I've lurked on this site for about 4 years, and after reading kid oakland's diary respect.empower.include, I felt compelled to share my "endorsement" with friends and family.  After the jump is an e-mail I sent on Super Tuesday regarding the current primaries. On one hand, it’s an endorsement for Barack Obama. However, I’d like to think of it as a celebration of how my own journey has been impacted by the work of both Michelle and Barack Obama.
