We're Going to be Make History

As they walked to their car after waiting for hours to get tickets to the Obama town-hall meeting to be held on Monday, Diana Brown said to her friends, "Do you realize, we're going to make history."

Diana, and her friends Barry Mahaffery, and Barb Smith (pictured right) were three of thousands who stood in line at Obama campaign headquarters on Harrisburg Pike to get tickets to the town hall meeting to be held at Thaddeus Stevens Tech. All three are from the city, but Democrats, Independents and Republicans from all over Lancaster County and neighboring counties stood in line as well.  Click here for more pictures...

In other news today, Pennsylvania Sen. Bob Casey endorsed Democrat Barack Obama. Appearing on stage beside the Illinois senator, Casey told a boisterous rally, "I believe in my heart that there is one person who's uniquely qualified to lead us in that new direction and that is Barack Obama."

Delegates for Obama

Carol Hunt

Carol resides in historic Strasburg. She works in the multimedia marketing field as a professional consultant and project manager. She enjoys volunteering within her community at Heritage Society and Sertoma Club fundraisers, as well as studying political history and how it affects issues of today.

Why I support Barack Obama:

"As our nation is reeling from the last eight years of international and congressional stalemates, it is critical for unification, principled pragmatic leadership to solve important issues facing our country and the world with a calm, positive voice of reason to move forward. Obama is the only candidate that I believe can reach out to mend our reputation around the world, work across political party divides, and inspire change."

Dayle Brown

I am fifty-three, widowed, and recently moved to Lancaster from Atlanta. I am a teacher and the mother of two grown children. I support Barack Obama for many reasons. He shares so many of my concerns: the disproportionate share of our country’s resources now claimed by big money and entrenched power; the way politics-as-usual candidates can’t resist exploiting our deepest most painful divisions just so they’ll win; our loss of moral standing in the world’s eyes.  I support him because his proposals to deal with these problems are sensible, innovative and always humane.

It excites me knowing that Senator Obama not only cares about America’s poor, he’s spent time living side-by-side with these folks – our neighbors who need our help – so he can understand the thousand ways poverty delimits their lives. An Obama administration, I believe, would offer help that’s respectful and useful.

Maybe most of all, I support Senator Obama because he calls for us to work together. He asks us to renounce cynicism, unnecessary rancor, the resigned acceptance that our national government belongs to someone else. He speaks to us rather of what we all share – the power as a democracy to return the American people’s great strength and fundamental goodness to wise and humane purposes.
