Got to meet Obama.

[angisson]

wow first of all its been for EVER since I been on here.. I gotta change that.. been way to busy with life =[


anyways yesterday I got to meet Obama while he was in Flint MI at Kettering Uni. he didn't speak till 12, doors opened at 10... I was there at 7:30 and people were in line.. all and all over 1,400 came to see him. I was in the second row on the left (if you were looking at the stage). It was great, I got to shake his hand twice ^_^

I think, in all honestly its just cool to see some one like that even if you don't support him.

He came to my school as well (Penn State). PA was one of those states that could sway either way so both Clinton and Obama came to try to get votes.

congrats, are you able to get his autograph? and let him hold a piece of paper with your domain on it?

 

[Alex]

Nice

And are you from Flint or surroundings?

 

[whitebark]

What kind of speach did he give? Since it was Flint I'm guessing he spoke at length about trade, jobs, education etc?

Cool, Chris. Sounds like a good experience.

 

[shockie]
