Barack Obama, as well as Hillary Clinton, has been campaigning daily for 16 straight months.  As far as I can tell they might have taken one or two weekends off during all that time.

There is approximately four and a half months left in this race to the White House.  Just two months from the Democratic Convention.  Obama and his crew have a lot to think about and work on to prepare for the coming events.

News is reporting that Barack plans on spending the weekend with his family.  I sincerely hope he and his crew take more time than that.  They not only need to rest after such a long historical primary; they need to rest up for the upcoming challenges.

If it makes you feel any better Senator, even the President of United States takes time off.  In fact, the following was just reported back in March which doesn’t include his daughter’s wedding recently:

According to CBS Radio correspondent Mark Knoller, Bush has now broken the record.

Knoller says that last weekend's trip by Bush to (where else?) Crawford, TX with the Danish minister in tow was the 70th trip of his presidency. In total, Bush has spent 452 days on vacation during his presidency. That's close to 1 1/3 years out of seven and half.

A normal citizen is lucky to get 2-4 work weeks of vacation a year which equals a maximum of 160 days in 8 years.  If President Bush can take that much time off – so can you Obama.

Barack Obama, you and your crew (Hillary and hers too) – deserve to take some major down time off.  I sincerely hope that you do.  I as your supporter and well wisher, want you 'all', to be fresh and sharp for the coming months of campaigning against John McCain and his GOP machine. 

So TAKE A BREAK sir!  Please!
