Gay superdelegate Jason Rae explains his previously announced Barack Obama endorsement: "It was a matter of how many young people were turning out for him. I got elected to be a voice for American's next generation and I see Obama really engaging with young people. In exit polls, 73% of 18-to-24-year-old Wisconsin voters supported him." [POQ]

Nerdalicious cutie Jason Rae's political action grabbed him many a headline last week.

Yeah, looks that way… [The Advocate]

Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama are nearly neck-and-neck in their race for the Democratic nomination.

There are 796 superdelegates, including Jason Rae: the youngest superdelegate in the nation. He's 21-years old. And he has nearly as much power as a state. That's fucking crazy.[Gay Politics]
