Dear Young America,


WE ARE IN A STATE OF EMERGENCY!!! YOU MUST REGISTER TO VOTE BY MONDAY OCTOBER 6, 2008!!!!! We are only 31 days from the most important election of our lifetime. MONDAY OCTOBER 6, 2008 IS THE DEADLINE. We are at war, banks are closing, people are losing their jobs and houses every day. It is our responsibility to protect our futures. Time is running out. You must register by Monday October 6th. Barack Obama cannot win this election on his own; he needs our help. This election is about us. This election is about our children’s future. If you have not registered to vote, you are disrespecting everyone that sacrificed their lives for you to have this right. You are also disrespecting your future.



The time is NOW for us to use the voices with which God has blessed us. We need you to do all you can. Here is what we need to do:


  1. Register to vote BY MONDAY, OCTOBER 6th 2008
  2. Get as many people as you can to register with you
  3. Go to the poll and vote on November 4th


Barack Obama said it best, “Eight is Enough.” No longer will we stand by and follow leadership with no regard for us and no accountability to us.


We can be the deciding factor in this election, but you must register to vote to make your voice heard. Who are we? We are young America. This is our moment of truth. Are you registered for change? October 6th is only a few days away.


Make sure that on November 4th, we are able to say that we did everything in our power to make sure that Barack Obama becomes the next President of the United States. We owe this to our children, our parents, our grandparents and ourselves. We need you to become a part of Team Obama. This is the most important election in our lifetime. REGISTER TO VOTE BY MONDAY OCTOBER 6th and VOTE TO MAKE HISTORY ON NOVEMBER 4th!!!!


Visit www.VoteForChange.com to register to vote TODAY


It is our duty to make our voices heard. STOP what you’re doing right now and lets REGISTER TO VOTE. Time is running out!!!!!!!!!


God Bless,


Sean “Diddy” Combs

Shawn “Jay-Z” Carter

Mary J. Blige

Can we get some security watching the ballots though? I don't want another "OOPS" and have Obama ballots go uncounted for.

I respect all of these artist/executives. But, I don't need them to tell me who to vote for/when to vote. I am knowledge-proof enough. I mean where were all these people when Obama was neck and neck with Clinton (Hillary). Why they wait till he secure the nomination to start supporting. They just think about their pockets. Perfect example remember Oprah said she was going to back Obama? Yeah, remember that? Where is she now?
I mean i respect them but, they front like the support BEEN there. They late the hip-hop community/fans already backing Obama.

i think they just want ppl to vote more than anything. but some ppl do need to be told to vote for b/c they have nothing they ID with to help them make decisions. there are more dummies in the workd that smart, educated ppl.

@ illseed

you're kidding right? people have to be TOLD who to VOTE for? is that what democracy is all about?

Huey vs Riley said:

no, i'm not kidding. let me be clear: SOME PEOPLE NEED TO BE TOLD WHO TO VOTE FOR. People 1) don't always process the issues or watch the debates/cnn/read indie media/get on AHH and argue this all day. 2) A star or celebrity is no different that me or you telling somebody else why they shld vote for a candidate. so why wouldnt they? its not like they are telling you to vote for The DEVIL. 3) Its wild b/c all of the aformentioned celebs are RICH and they are telling you to vote for somebody the CLEARLY is going to tax them more heavily that obama plans to. Obama said clearly, i am gonna take the rich harder. Jay said straight up, "i should be republican based on how much money i make" - think about that and listen to why they voting against money. some ppl need to be told on a level they can process. killer mike talked about that extensively at the social lounge.

by the way, when i say that - if you didnt get it - i mean ppl are always told to vote for somebody  or more specifically why they should vote for somebody. clearly you can't DEEBO somebody to vote how you want. sheesh...people are too smart for their own good.
