Official iPhone app for Obama '08 now in App Store

He is right and it IS socialism we are facing if Obama Rama gets elected. You have been warned.

Late comments never get noticed here... : )

How do I get a picture and a new password?

people talk about how Obama is more Mac ish and Hillary was PC ish, well... This apps color schemes remind me of windows XP. The green donate button on the blue bar at the bottom.

It's gotta be subliminal to replace the "Start" button with a "Donate" button. It's already the first place people want to click.

Matt.

"When 60% of new voters vote one way, do you really think that's their ultimate goal? If so, I got a bridge to sell you."

Then by your logic, anyone who is yelling DO NOT VOTE, or trying to prevent the voting population from changing in form is really trying to get the other guy to win... one could make the argument that that's what you're trying to do.

But lets be serious here. Apathy and cynicism of the political system is not a legitimate political stance. Apathy and cynicism is submission to the system... a conceit that you mean nothing, so you should do nothing.

My father lived in this country for 30 years, and never voted because he thought that politicians were corrupt and racist. Even if that were true, by not voting, I felt he conceded that he was powerless in the face of The System.

In my book, apathy is just letting the system steamroll over you. You may not have much representation in the way we vote, but we have SOME representation.

Does the app tell us how many decades it'll be before any candidate from either of the two major parties figures out what the 9th and the 10th amendments mean?

Socialism is now wireless! Awesome.

"What is the point of "watering down" the vote with people who don't really care that much? "

The issue isn't watering down he vote. It's trying to get people involved in society, more hopeful and engaged. Sure many people vote uninformed, but many more vote misinformed. A healthy active electorate and a vigorous debate cannot be a bad thing for this country. Personally I think if so many people didn't give up on our political system then we would not have so many idiots in Washington and less corrupt influence.

Regardlessly, I really impressed with the online efforts of the Obama campaign. Whether you like his politics or not you have to admire the impressive organization of his campaign. It's a real game changer.

If there's one thing that gets my blood boiling it's people telling other people to vote. Be it celebrities, bloggers, Google, MTV, ACORN... it's like we're all a bunch of idiots who can't figure out we live in a democracy.

What is the point of "watering down" the vote with people who don't really care that much? Unless you think the person who might forget to vote is actually more inclined to vote the way you do, or you believe that voting magically makes someone a "good citizen" that will improve society, there really is no point to tell others to vote.

All you have to do to get people to vote is to have them look at their own tax return, which a big chunk of the population doesn't have to worry about. Maybe there's a correlation between those who don't vote and those who don't pay taxes. The taxpayer has to pay every year and only gets to vote every four... Think about that. Then think how groups like Rock-the-Vote may be offensive to taxpayers.

I hear the McCain app is called CarpetBagger? Can anyone confirm? It's ok John, I'm really on your side unfortunately. Just another lesser of two evils contest again...

i installed this right away earlier this afternoon, and it is indeed a very nice app. i'm impressed how on top of things the obama campaign is -- savvy about technology and all.
