Times like these are both invigorating and frustrating for liberal patriots who don't have the power to vote. Those of us who live in Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands and like me -- in Guam.
I just want to let you know great it is to hear the stories of you who are knocking door-to-door to get out the vote. It's even better to read about those of you who've already voted. Since we can't, you represent us even more than our elected congressional reps and delegates who work in Washington, but have little impact.
For our part, many of us have made sure to call our relatives who are Mainland U.S. residents. Long distance phone banking is rough and expensive, but you guys really provide inspiration to do our part. I want to know though, if any of you have ideas on how else we non-voting Americans can make an impact?

No, and this year I feel like the kid looking into the candy store pressed against the glass.
