I am a member of Democrats Abroad and am able to vote in the primary via email.... I will be going to a meetup this evening in Palermo to watch the primary results tumble in with a bunch of other expats. Should be interesting.  
Because John Edwards bowed out of the primaries, I will be voting for OBAMA. I recently saw two videos and thought the were interesting. I value Larry Lessig's contributions to the world and his thoughts. Obama is an inspirational charismatic man. This is not why I am voting for him. He has always opposed the war in Iraq and his views on technology are sane.  
Video One (20 mins or so): [Click to Play][5] / [Click to Download][6] / [Click to torrent][7] / [Lessig's blog post][8]  
Video Two (4:30 mins): [Youtube video][9] / [Lessig's blog post][10]  
If you are eligible to vote today in the primaries, GO OUT AND VOTE.
