Wearing out on politics

If I'm wearing out on politics, you know it's bad. Now there's nothing left to do but beat each other up until April 22nd.

In the meantime, I'll hit a less complicated subject-National Service (AmeriCorps, etc).

Good news! All three leading candidates support national service!

Barack Obama proposes tripling the size of the AmeriCorps program

Hillary Clinton is a big supporter-Bill Clinton started AmeriCorps and greatly expanded other service programs

John McCain stood up to Newt Gingrich and friends multiple times when AmeriCorps was cut from the federal budget to make sure it remained fully funded.
