Barack Obama

a whole staff, paid staff up to Idaho.

But we have a few volunteers, some people, some supporters, they send us a message saying, hey, we're Idahoans for Obama.

And we'd love to build a, we think you can win this state.

And so we go, all right.

So we'd send a bunch of information through Meetup and we'd give them the app.

And basically what the app would do is you could

Send out.

Here's Obama's positions on things.

Here's dates of debates and this and that.

But the main thing it did, hence the name, was it would help these volunteers organize themselves to meet up.

In person.

In person.

Yeah.

In a church basement, in a bar, in a VFW hall, whatever.

And what I always tell people was wonderful about this rudimentary app was –

They'd show up when they actually met in person.

And maybe they were assuming that they all fought the same way and had the same positions and everything.

And they'd show up at some Obama volunteer meeting, and you'd have what looked like an ex-army sergeant with a crew cut.

And you'd have a young black woman with a nose ring.

And you'd have a suburban mom with some kids.
