While I am still rather young, I have never found myself interested in politics before this Presidential election. I guess because I have never had to provide for myself or been forced to think about taxes, health care, education, or other issues that seem to take a fair amount of the focus in any election cycle.

However, Barack Obama has made me think a little differently I guess. While I know many disagree with my points of view, I see Obama as the one person who could bring the change that this country desperately needs.

While I can assume that you have heard of it by now, Senator Obama purchached air time tonight on 7 different television networks to give his closing arguments to the American public. If you didn't check it out, I definitely suggest that you spend a couple minutes taking a watch.


I definitely don't feel like I have the persuasion ability to convince anyone else to think or feel the ways I do, that's not my purpose in this post. If I can do anything though, I do hope that I can encourage you to at least take some time out of your day next Tuesday to vote. Many have fought to give us that future, so use your vote and help make the nation a better place for future generations.

So, it's been just over a month since my last blog post (thanks Adam for the friendly reminder).  I know that this extended length of time without a single blurb about my life makes me a horrible blogger and I may just be content with that.  The last 45 days or so have been  blur for me and a great one at that, full of memories I'm not sure I will ever have again in my life and I am super appreciative for that.

To prove that I haven't spent the entire last month eating Twinkies and popping collars (and to provide actual content to this post), I'm going to link over to a couple of other cool things I have been up to.

The biggest event of the last month has been a Relient K concert which the radio station I work for threw on September 27th.  Helping put together a free show for nearly 1000 students was unbelievable.  I got to meet a lot of cool people and see the smiles on many entertained concert-goers.  We got a lot of great pictures taken at the event and I hope to post some here soon.

For those of you who know me personally or have followed the site, you may know that I love to conduct interviews.  I have gotten some sweet interviews recently through work at the radio station, here are some of my favorites.

I am also working weekly on a morning show for my station, WVUR, where we conduct interviews and piece together segments to entertain students and faculty on their drive to class or wake up.  One of our more popular pieces is this psuedo-soap opera called "Pushing It Back."  Take a listen to the first 3 short episodes and let me know what you think.


As the academic year progresses, more and more of my time will be going to the radio station and class work.  I will try to be a little more regular on the blog however and keep posting links to what I am working on.  I should have some sweet interviews lined up here for the morning show soon, with 3OH!3 doing a little over the phone interview with me next week.  If anyone has a suggestion for a possible interview, send me an e-mail.  Heck, if you read this at all, send me an e-mail and let me know what you think of my work.  I love reading feedback.  You can send all electronic transmissions to Cameron@CameronBanga.com.
