I want your vote! Please vote for me to be the next Commentator on the “Tom Joyner Morning Show,” which is heard by over 8 million listeners. The radio show is available online at BlackAmericaWeb.com, but you must register in advance.

The person selected to be the next voice “to elevate, educate, entertain and inform black America” will have a platform that is trusted by African Americans. As Chuck D observed in the new documentary, "Disappearing Voices," black radio historically “looked out for black people.” Indeed, radio stations like WDIA in Memphis and WVON in Chicago were the voice for the voiceless.

Every Election Day, I encourage readers of my blog, Anderson@Large, to take five to the polls. Well, I want you to forward this post to five friends, coworkers or family members and ask them to tune in to my five-minute commentary on Tuesday, July 15 at 8:10 am ET.

Listeners will be asked to go to my webpage and rate me. If folks miss my commentary, they can still vote. Voting will be open on July 15 from 8:00 am ET to 8:00 pm ET.

I thank you in advance for your support. I’ll see you on the radio.
