Being @ The Obama Rally

Robyn and I went to yesterday's President Obama Rally on the Ohio State campus.Robyn's brother,Ben,Ben's wife,Sara and our Rev.Rob went with us.There were many speakers including John Glenn and Governor Ted Strickland.Musical guests included The Central State drum line and Springfield famous native son,John Legend.

But the highlight of the night had to be the joint appearances of both Michelle and Barack Obama.Though Robyn and I were a somewhat far away seventy yards from the stage,I could see fine.For,only five foot tall Robyn,it was a totally different story.She could only see once she got upon my back,piggyback style,to see the Obamas. 

This photo,from the allot closer Ben,Sara and Rob,show a pretty close up photo of the president and his beautifully wife,Michelle.The president told about how the Republicans have driven American into the ditch and the only help that they were giving to get it out was to tell  the president and Ohio Gov.Ted Strickland that they weren't pushing the correct way to get it out...remember D means drive forward and R means reverse.



Here is Robyn if front of the 'Moving America Forward' sign.We were amazed at how many different people(young,old,Indian,Japanese,Afro-American,Muslim,etc) joyously smiled to have their pictures taken in front of this sign.It gave us such a huge message of HOPE.
