Obama Can Pronounce “Vegan”-Wants More Veggies For The Children
Written by Vegetarian Star on Tuesday, August 5th, 2008 in Politicians.
Nikki Benoit, Outreach Coordinator for Florida Voices for Animals, attended an Obama speech at St. Pete Gibbs High in Florida last week and was delighted to hear him discuss the environment, factory farming, and children getting more nutritious food in schools. She was also ecstatic that he could pronounce “vegan.”
“As I was being handed the mic, Obama read my shirt out loud – “Vegan Outreach” . . . . .YES!!! HE DID!!! AND…he pronounced it RIGHT!!!”
Some other points in the Obama speech included more preventative measures to address the health care crisis, such as changing America’s eating habits and he said schools need more fruits and vegetables versus pre-packaged food and meat products.
The story, at Vegan.com, ends with the blogger wondering how McCain would pronounce “vegan.”
