John Mayer Makes The Case To Elect Barack Obama

Posted on October 29, 2008 by popdirt

is voicing his support for Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama in a column at the Huffington Post ahead of next Tuesday’s U.S. elections. Mayer writes:

Just when I’d thought my only role as an adult was to help shoulder the nation through its darkest days (known to us as “the rest of them”), Obama gives me the feeling that I could be alive to witness one of the most brilliant upturns in a country’s history. Imagine that — a young adult in this day and age being given something to someday brag to his children about having being alive to witness. What a concept.

That’s why hope is a worthwhile commodity. To those who question whether hope is a tangible product worth building a campaign around, I’d say take a look at despair and how powerful that has been in reshaping how people think and live.

Check out the rest of his thoughts here.

updated fans on her blog at MySpace on Wednesday (October 29) after performing at the Pink Ribbon Gala. The American pop singer tells readers:

Hello Everyone

It was a very long day yesterday – I arrived in Stockhom, Sweden at 4am.

At the hotel, they brought me space heater to help warm up my room – unfortunately, when I plugged them in they blew the main fuse so I was left in the dark!! The hotel brought me up a flashlight and I was laughing at myself trying to brush my teeth with only the light from the flashlight!!!

I just finished singing at a wonderful Gala supporting Breast Cancer!!! I am at the airport getting ready to fly to Rome where I will be performing on the Lottery Show.

That’s all for now…
