Visible Vote '08

In January 2009, not just the curtains will be replaced at the White House, and I'm counting down the days.

In a shout out to all the gay voters out there (and considering the way the conservatives used us to divide the country four years ago, "gay" and "voter" ought to mean the same thing), Logo launched a new site today called VisibleVote08.com.

It's Logo's home base for GLBT news from the presidential race from now through Election Day. There'll be guest celebrity bloggers and plenty of opportunities for users to comment and participate. You can submit questions to be asked of the candidates at a presidential candidate forum on August 9 all about GLBT issues. (It's not a debate: They will speak alone in turn.) All Democratic and Republican candidates were invited, but it'll be just the Democrats, because the Republicans said they have to wash their hair that night. It's a live broadcast, and it'll stream live on the Web site, so if you don't have Logo, you can still watch!

GLBT folks have a voice, and we gotta use it. We need to hold not only our political enemies, but also our political allies, accountable for the actions they take (or don't take) that directly affect our lives, our families and our basic rights. I hope this will encourage the Democratic candidates to say something real and meaningful to us for once.

In the meantime, check out the guest commentary by Cyndi Lauper!

Love her!

P.S. Mac users can watch, too!
