President Obama's 2012 campaign makes moves

There are 531 days to go until the 2012 presidential election, and a new web video released today by the Obama campaign promises a jump start for a campaign designed to reignite President Obama's backers and build grassroots support.

"In September and October we will see a sea of volunteers come into our offices. We know we have to have an infrastructure in place, an organization in place to properly channel that energy," Obama's Battleground Director Mitch Stewart says in the video.

"What we've learned is that the best way is to have a team up where we empower local volunteers to take leadership roles within our campaign make decisions within our campaign in their neighborhood or in their community based off of the work they have done leading up to the election, but also because of their experience."

"But we have a lot of work to do," Stewart admitted.

3. That is vitally important. It doesn't do a damn bit of good just electing Obama.

In our district we screwed up by having a candidate that thought he knew what he was doing. He was wet behind the ear and he campaigned as if he was a Republican instead of a Democrat. He portrayed himself as a hunter but anyone looking at him and knowing anything about his background would have to have serious doubts. And he didn't have a clue about labor issues either.

If our 2006 candidate had run in 2008 he might had won.
