Remember the ladies, continued

So Sunday's Newsday, in its boilerplate "This day in history" sidebar, gives us this:

"1870: The 15th amendment to the Constitution, giving all citizens the right to vote regardless of race, was declared in effect by Secretary of State Hamilton Fish."

Sigh.

Support school kids in Senator Clinton's name

When Stephen Colbert was "running for President" in South Carolina, backers of Sen. Obama helped block his getting on the primary ballot.

As part of his candidacy, Colbert asked for his supporters to donate to projects in South Carolina public schools through donorschoose.com.

Now, in preparation for his show going to Pennsylvania, Colbert has set up the Democralypse! challenge at Donors Choose, to benefit public schools in Pennsylvania, for supporters of Sen. Obama and Sen. Clinton.

Sen. Obama's numbers are outrunning Sen. Clinton's by a wide margin. Even if you don't plan to vote for Senator Clinton, please consider giving money to one of the Pennsylvania projects in her name.

Thanks!
