Imagine President Obama in This Photograph Wearing a Syracuse # 44 Jersey

President Barack Obama being presented with a number 44 Syracuse University jersey at the Carrier Dome on Februaruy 14th. It could happen! If enough people lobby hard enough, than nothing is impossible. The rallying cry is obvious: "Yes we can!" President-elect Obama would certainly approve of this effort. I am sure other colleges will be trying to do something similar, but Syracuse has an upper hand. With the hook of the number 44 being so significant, and hard on the heels of the long over-due movie of Ernie Davis, I cannot see how the University can avoid making a strong effort to help kick-off the Obama Presidency with this exciting and inspiring event.

Who else has any ideas that can build grassroots momentum toward making this happen? Where are our fellow community organizers out there?
