Back during the hotly contested primaries, a diary I did (Redheads At Work) helped spur the idea of "food bombs". This creative tactic did many things in addition to providing food for the hardworking Obama ground teams. Click here for a refresher... Redheads at Work
It created excitement for those who wanted to help. Those outside the swing states are ready and willing to help and this is a great way to be involved.
It provided some great visability for the Campaign. Obama Food bomb deliveries going on all over the country.
It got word to local restaurants that Obama supporters are community oriented. (I'm sure the food bombs added significantly to their bottom line).
It made a statement that we care about the field offices, volunteers and everyone who is working long hours on the ground.
Let's work over the next few days to develop a food bomb plan again for the swing states. I know someone came up with a great system to check off offices as they were "adopted".
I think this should be a "CALL TO ACTION" for the upcoming weeks. I know there are a lot of hard-working, hungry redheads, blueheads, whiteheads, etc out there putting 100's of hours into this campaign. Please join me in trying to get this started. I'm no computer guru, so help is requested.
FOOD BOMBS for OBAMA! Who's with me?
