Thinking back...

President Obama visited our campus back when he was campaigning, and as i think about it now, several months later, it is amazing the following he had even then. The line to get to the oval, where he was speaking, was over a mile long. It was hard to get to class. Everyone seemed to have some sort of Obama paraphernalia. It almost seemed more like a sporting event, or an opening of a really big movie. It is amazing how he spawned such a following so quickly among democrats and republicans alike with a simple message.
