Why a quote from Senator Obama in the ad?

Dear Editor,

I had the fortune..or rather the misfortune of coming across a GT&T advertisement in your quarterly Guyana Review publication contained in the 25th March 2008 edition of the Stabroek News, and I was rather confused and surprised that the advertisement, had a much vaulted statement from a Senator no less, in the United States, who happens to be running for President of the US.

I am just curious, I know we are all rushing helter skelter to the United States, but are we now the confirmed 53rd state of the United States and eligible to vote at the Democratic Primaries?
