Barack Obama revealed a childhood love for comic books this week in an email he sent to constituents, soliciting Organizing for Action supporters to share how they got involved with the president’s organization.
“Back in the day, I was pretty into Conan the Barbarian and Spiderman,” he wrote in the email. “Anyone who reads comics can tell you, every main character has an origin story — the fateful and usually unexpected sequence of events that made them who they are.”
The email encourages recipients to share the story of how they got involved in his movement. The winning writer gets to meet the president in DC.
