12. Please, he's so six-months-ago's Rock-Star-Jesus.

Haven't you heard? Obama has fallen from grace and Al Gore is our new God.

Over 195,000 New Members & New Video Release on BlackPlanet

By Scott Goodstein - Oct 17th, 2007 at 3:19 pm EDT

BlackPlanet.com has quickly become our largest social network of friends in less than two weeks. We are excited by all of the energy that Barack has generated on this network in such a short period of time.

Jose Antonio Vargas of the Washington Post notes how influential this network may be in the 2008 elections. He writes:

Before MySpace launched in 2003, and before Facebook was founded in 2004, BlackPlanet has been a mainstay in the African American community, with partnerships with niche publications such as Vibe, Black Enterprise and Essence. Created in 1999, it has 17 million registered users, a vast majority of them in the U.S. According to Hitwise, which tracks online popularity, it's the 5th highest trafficked "socnet," behind MySpace and Facebook, and it's the only niche soc-net in the top 5. In an online poll conducted by the site itself, two-thirds of its members -- 66 percent -- say they are likely to vote next year.

Our campaign is currently featuring a new video on BlackPlanet of Barack's recent trip to Emerson's Barbershop in Marion, South Carolina:

UPDATE: We just passed 200,000 members on BlackPlanet!

13. Wow, that is awesome

I'm not sure what they mean by 'next year', but I hope they mean early next year (as in primaries and caucuses)!
