Yesterday Barack spent the day in Pennsylvania where he held a discussion on the economy at the Siemens Hydro Powerplant in York. Afterwards he traveled to Buchanan Park in Lancaster, Pennsylvania where he held a "Change We Need" event.

1. The Lancaster Intelligencer Journal had the most beautiful picture on the front page today.
Edited on Fri Sep-05-08 08:30 PM by enough
with a large headline all the way across the page above the fold:

"15000 greet Obama here"

Shows Barack under some trees speaking to a VERY large crowd in Lancaster PA yesterday. I wish I could find this shot online to post it here. It is a perfect embodiment of REAL politics. A whole lot of citizens come out on a hot afternoon to listen to a real statesman talk about real things. In the photo, you can see close-ups of part of the crowd listening with absolute attention to what he is saying. And in the distance you see the crowd stretching out to the horizon.

I came upon this photo while visiting my father at Lancaster General Hospital. It made me feel a lot better about my country.

2. I love how he randomly, easily gets large crowds and McCain
has to bus people from all over America to listen to him speak.
