Pretty darn good reasons

You know why I'm so excited to vote for President Obama one more time?

Because he cares about the things I care about: Fairness. Equal rights. Doing the right thing.

Because he's looking out for the average guy and gal, and I just love that.

And because five months ago, my wife, Lara, got to tell me that the President of the United States made history by standing up for our relationship and our family.

I think those are pretty darn good reasons to call yourself a woman for Obama -- but if you're looking for more, you should watch this video right now.

Over the last three and a half years, we've seen what can happen when we have someone in the White House who is fighting for us. "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" is history -- nobody has to hide who they love to serve this country. If my partner is in the hospital, I have visitation rights. And millions of Americans can make health care decisions based on what's best for us -- not politicians or our insurance companies.

We didn't have that security before President Obama took the oath of office. And I don't know about you, but I want to keep moving forward.

So watch that video -- or if you watched it the first time I asked, watch it again:

Then get out there and let your friends and family know why you're voting for President Obama, and why they should, too.
