On Thursday, June 28th, the organization Bed-Stuy for Obama will be hosting debate-watching parties at two locations in the neighborhood: Common Grounds Cafe and Bread-Stuy Cafe. The debate will be moderated by Tavis Smiley (Tavis Smiley, PBS) and broadcast from Howard University.Â
This is a great opportunity to enjoy the wonderful food at Bread-Stuy and Common Grounds, to commiserate with friends over the presidency of the last 7 years (will there be liquor available?), and to wipe away the tears and be optimistic about the prospect of new face in the Oval Office. I will definitely be there.

Thanks for the shout-out, Changeling. Judging by the glowing reaction we’ve gotten in recent weeks as we hand out Obama info, the neighborhood sure seems excited about the upcoming campaign. Whether you’re a committed Obama-er, undecided or still pining for a Newt Gingrich comeback, the parties should be a blast. — Dan
