This past Sunday, Democratic Presidential nominee Barack Obama was in Charlotte for a political rally. If you’ve never attended any kind of rally, this was certainly something you really needed to see. There were so many people of all races, being kind to each other, waiting in the hot sun, just to see and hear this candidate of ‘change’. He did not disappoint most of the estimated crowd of 20,000. I was so enthralled by all of the young people who were so energetic about being in that arena and witnessing a part of history. This was not the first time Obama has come to Charlotte, but this was the first time I’ve gone and heard him speak and I was more impressed than I have ever been from watching him on T.V. He joked with the crowd while remaining steadfast in his efforts to bring economic relief, affordable health care, and better paying jobs to this region and this country as a whole. His momentum keeps growing…just remember to VOTE and get registered if you aren’t already. Make a commitment to getting at least one other person registered. The deadline to register is on October 10, that’s only 2 and ½ weeks from now…so keep it moving!
The first presidential debate comes on this Friday, September 26 at 9:00. Don’t miss this chance to see the candidates in action talking about the issues that matter to us in this election. Amid all of the controversy with John McCain trying to postpone the debate, as of now, it's still scheduled. This may be a lot of people’s first perceptions of the candidates after the conventions. There will be a total of 3 debates before the election, the second one is on October 7 and the third one will be on October 15.
