Barack Obama comes to H-TOWN! Part 1

UPDATE

So, Barack Obama visited Houston, TX on Tuesday, February 19, 2008.
It was a very historic experience! I hadn't made a decision as for who I'd vote for yet, but Obama looks very promising for the presidency. Points that got me were that he wanted to provide an affordable college education for every American student if they gave back by doing community service. He also talked about providing health care for every American. That sounds good, but we'll see about that....

There were lots of people saying that he "talks well" though. I'm like, "MAYYYNNNNE! All y'all got for the man is that he talks well?" That reminds me a lot of this Chris Rock joke on Bigger and Blacker or one of his other comedy shows. It's like just because he's an upstanding African American man, Caucasians and others think that the best compliment to give the brother. That boy Chris Rock spoke it there.

But anyway, I took some pictures and video of the whole event.
I was chilling on the floor with the media. It was a once in a lifetime experience that I won't soon forget. Just check out the pictures below.
