Norman's Favorite Donkey

http://current.com/items/89369402_normans-...

While a federal election looms in his native Canada, farmer Norman Collier is far more interested in seeing Barack Obama make history in the United States. So much so he constructed a huge sign to show his enthusiasm! If you enjoyed the story, a "vote up" would be appreciated of course! :)

Voting for Obama or not -- you've got to love that Norman has educated himself about the candidates, and he's willing to peacefully share his ideas. This is excellent.

Nobody gives a flying f*ck bout the Canadian election. Over here we're more affected by the White House than our Parliament.

My Canadian friends are rooting for Obama, McSame is just like Dubya and that scares them. I know it does me.
