Faithful Democrats
Since the GOP is making the point that no one knows anything that Senator Obama has accomplished in his 47 years on this planet, I thought it might be a good time to enlighten people as to what exactly are some of the things that he has accomplished.
He earned a law degree from Harvard in 1991 and was the first African-American president of the Harvard Law Review. After graduation he practiced and taught Constitutional Law.
He served 8 years in the Illinois State Senate before being elected to the Senate in 2004 with 70% of the vote, becoming the third African American since Reconstruction to be elected to the U.S. Senate.
His first law was passed with Republican Tom Coburn, a measure to rebuild trust in government by allowing every American to go online and see how and where every dime of their tax dollars is spent.
Since becoming a Senator in 2004, Obama had sponsored or co-sponsored 570 bills in the 109th and 110th Congress, of which 15 have become law.
