Vote Hope has released a new video featuring hip hop artist and actor Common encouraging people to get out and vote during the presidential primaries. Common is from the Southside of Chicago, an area where Obama worked as a community organizer. “I’m voting for Obama because he’s just there to do some good in the world” said Common in the video. Vote Hope’s goal is to get hundreds of thousands of votes pledged and banked for Obama leading into the California primary on February 5, 2008.
