This week's show is dedicated to president-elect Barack Obama. For those of us who supported his campaign with time, energy and money; it's time to breathe deeply and party! His campaign for the US presidency was a grass roots effort that mobilized people from all walks of life. His opponents derided his past experience as a 'community organizer' but that may have been his greatest asset in this election. Barack Obama proved that people will support that which they help create!
