It took more time than it should have, but on Tuesday Barack Obama firmly rejected the racism and paranoia of his former pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright Jr., and he made it clear that the preacher does not represent him, his politics or his campaign.

Capitol Hill insiders say the battle for congressional superdelegates is over, and one Senate supporter of Barack Obama is hinting strongly that he has prevailed over Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Important article regarding the recent disingenuous action of Barack Obama of "distancing" himself from Rev. Wright.

All eyes are on Indiana and North Carolina as we close in on next Tuesday's primaries, but the next contest is actually this Saturday, some 5000 miles off the coast of California on the island of Guam.

Four delegates are at stake in the Guam caucuses on May 3rd, and we've had an office up and running for weeks now. Early on, we made a commitment to campaign everywhere, for every vote, and Guam is no different.

In Guam as in every other contest so far, we're running an ambitious Get Out The Vote program, and you can help. The online calling campaigns for Indiana and North Carolina have closed down for the night, but there is still time to call Guam. 

Right now, you can help reach out to voters in Guam and encourage them to caucus for Barack. The Guam calling campaign runs until midnight Pacific Time. It's Thursday afternoon in Guam right now, which means we we only have two more days to contact voters before Saturday's caucuses. 

You can view Barack's positions on many of the issues facing Guam, and then log on to our online phonebanking system and begin making calls.

(Please note that some phone companies consider Guam an International Call and some do not, so you might want to check on the details on your own personal service plan before making calls.)

Time and again, your phone calls have made the difference in critical contest across the country. Now it's time to call Guam.
