I have some important news, and I'm pleased to share it with you first.
I've chosen Joe Biden to be my running mate.
Joe and I will appear for the first time as running mates this afternoon in Springfield, Illinois -- the same place this campaign began more than 19 months ago.
I'm excited about hitting the campaign trail with Joe, but the two of us can't do this alone. We need your help to keep building this movement for change.
Please let Joe know that you're glad he's part of our team. Share your personal welcome note and we'll make sure he gets it:
Welcome Joe
Thanks for your support,
Barack
P.S. -- Make sure to turn on your TV at 2:00 p.m. Central Time to join us or watch online at Barack Obama

Imtiaz Siddiqui and Kevin Brown were arrested Monday by Tulsa Police
Tulsa Police have arrested two suspects following a reported robbery of an individual at a convenience store late Monday.
Police say at 9:59 p.m., officers were assigned to the incident in front of the Fiesta Mart at 11200 East 21st Street.
The victim told police officers that when he left the store he was approached by a suspect identified as Kevin Brown, who asked to use the victim's cell phone.
When Brown began to leave, the victim asked for his cell phone back. Police say Brown then turned back to the victim, reportedly showing off a 9mm handgun in the suspect's waistband.
The suspect then demanded money from the victim.
Brown left the scene in a vehicle which was stopped by a Tulsa County Sheriff's deputy a few blocks away on 21st Street.
The driver of the vehicle, Imtiaz Siddiqui and Kevin Brown were arrested on complaints of first degree robbery and booked into the Tulsa County jail.

| | Posted by nerd57 on Wednesday, August 13 @ 03:54:44 CDT (284 reads) (Read More... | Score: 0) | | | | | | Tulsa Police Target Gangs | |  The funeral for one of the two 18- year-olds that was shot to death was held Wednesday. Teantae Ray was gunned down and left to die in a car last week.
Five days later Tulsa police say responded to another killing. A 22-year-old man was shot outside of the Mabee Community Center in North Tulsa. Officers say there is a possibility all three shootings could be gang retaliations.
On the heels of the third possible gang related homicide in one week, Tulsa police say they will continue to crack down on violence.
"Some may be patrolling, some may be getting out, parking their cars, walking a foot beat," Captain Tracie Lewis couldn't go into details, but assured us they are hitting the hot spots.
“Showing a little bit more attention to some of the neighborhoods and some of the houses that we know that these particular groups live at so that maybe we can curb some violence and nobody else gets killed,” Lewis said
Police and local activists agree it's a matter of life and death.
"I ran out. Sure enough, he was lying on the ground," Dayo Adetula said.
Adetula's son, Joseph was a senior in high school when he was shot to death. Adetula believes his son was a victim of gang violence.
“This gang violence has to stop so we are our brother's keeper. I feel if everybody that then people who are afraid to come forward will come forward,” Adetula added.
Now the father is using his pain to promote peace, educating others through the Joseph Adetula Foundation.
“I even have a picture of my son in the casket because you have to show these kids that this is what will happen,” Adetula said.
Immigration Customs Enforcement (ICE) representatives said they said they are working on a gang sweep with local law enforcement agencies, but they could not give out any more details.
The family of the other victim in the double homicide, Tajuan Davis will hold his funeral Saturday morning.
Police need your help. If you have any information please call Crime Stoppers at
596-COPS.

| | | | | | | Making a Difference – Community Service Opportunities with Area Children and You | | As the representatives stood up to introduce themselves and their organizations, I was especially struck by one, partly because it was one I had not previously heard about, and mostly because of the very personal connection the speaker had to his organization. Dayo Adentula, formerly of Nigeria, lost his son, Joseph a few years ago. Joseph was an innocent victim of a drive-by shooting that occurred in his north Tulsa neighborhood. Instead of turning angry and bitter, Dayo has begun a foundation in his son’s name, designed to help young African American men find alternatives to the angry and destructive life-style of violence on the streets. The Joseph Adetula Foundation attempts to accomplish this through various means. Dayo’s current focus, and where he needs the most help, is in advocating for youth facing long term suspension within the Tulsa Public Schools, helping them remain in school and find a second chance. He told me that he has found that almost every young man he has worked with so far has been able to turn themselves around, stay in school and stay out of more serious trouble. The numbers of young people needing this kind of service are more than he can handle. If this is an opportunity you would like to learn more about, you can contact him at dayo58@yahoo.com.
