So Barack Obama is doing another tour across the state tomorrow on the way to a rally at the capital... I RSVP'ed to attend the Lancaster train station greeting, and was wondering what it might be like.

It is at 6PM, and the rally at the capital is at 8:30 or something... SO how long do you think he'll be there? I'm not sure how far the drive is from there to the capital, but do you think he'll give a short speech? The description says he'll be meeting and speaking with Pennsylvanians, so maybe I can shake his hand...I have chills thinking about it.

I might attend the rally if I can find someone to go with me because I don't know exactly how to get to Harrisburg.

Sounds nice hope you get to meet him then, it seems that you really want to go, so if you cant get someone to go with you, find out how to get there yourself imo :)

Check if he is the anti-christ by shaking his hands, If you feel an overwhelming force of evil and a coldness that stills you to the bones, then run. If not, you can relax, and then tell us, so we can sleep soundly at night knowing at least one politician is not going to contribute to the apocalypse.

I'm going to vote against Barack Obama!

I wouldn't get too excited. You might get 10 seconds to shake his hand if that.

thats great. he seems like a great man and i hope you enjoy. I like his campaigning. He is so mature, professional and speaks about issues more then any of the other candidate. all the others ever do is try to dog him and evade important questions. i guess they think everybody is blind and can see the childist and desperate behaviour.

you tc are a lucky one....have fun

Whatever you do, DO NOT ask him a tough question. Not only will he talk about how your against him, but you'll have CNN and the Daily Kos going after you. lol

lol just joking guys.

Have fun man, sounds like a cool experience.

If I go to the Lancaster (meet / greet type one), do you think I could bring The Audacity of Hope and possibly get it signed? I'm not sure if your allowed to bring things.

I'm definitely thinking of going to the capitol on my own.. It'll be insanely awesome. I think it's an outdoor rally on the steps of the capitol so that should be really nice.

Ask him about his membership to the Council on Foreign Relations and how that is going to influence his foreign policy decisions if elected as president. I bet he won't answer. That crook.

Another question. It says the events are free and open to the public, but it will be on first come first serve basis, and RSVP'ing is recommended.

So, since I RSVP'ed, would I be guranteed entry, or would you think it's still first come first serve? The email I got just said like "thank you for planning to attend".

If I go to the capitol, I should probably get there VERY early right? I remember seeing in the newspaper one of his big rallies a few weeks ago people were out there before sunrise and that line stretched with like several hundered people there hours before the gates even opened. The gates for the 8:45 rally open at 6:30, so do you think getting there at 4:30 would be early enough?

Good for you! i met and spoke with him on the morning before he gave his big address to the democratic convention in 04, the speech which put him in the national spot light. i was also there for the speech later that night.... amazing doesnt even cover it. the energy in the room... alll of a sudden i understood how good public speaking could get hitler to rule a nation. the power of a speech cannot be underestimated

I met Jean Chretien once in a semi casual setting. I told him that I respected him for not needing body guards and choking a protestor out himself. He actually laughed at it. Oh those were the days.

The power of celebrity is an illusion. Is Obama going to magicaly change your life and grant you the ability to live forever? I think not. IT's just your perception that some how he's better than the average man when in fact he is the average man.

wrong. he has the power to bring about great change because he is such a powerful and pursusive speaker. he is the anti hitler he can get people behind him and what he says, thats how he will bring about change

Ok he doesn't sound too evil when you put it that way. We have to wait for the TC's impressions though. He might be a different man now, heck he might even be a walking zombie like Jandurin suggested.:shock:

Obama will be the next president and change the world into a better pace. the last presidents did nothing but put the country in dept and use other ppl kids to terrorize other countries. ( War on Terror? haha....stop making me laugh) Change is finally coming unless some .......person assassinates him first. We all know how it is in this F-up world. its a shame how a bunch of racist and cowards made this world to what it is today.

I think the TC is going to faint. You are right though one would be a fool to assume that a politician is being legit about everything and especially in that kind of an environment. Not that they can't be nice people, but you can't buy into all of it. Unfortunately a lot of people seem to be buying him and not being critical enough. He didn't do so good in that last debate, even if it was "fixed" or w/e. I don't think people would be complaining if he dominated. He is acting like he is above the "politics of the past" when in reality it seems like he is just another player.

But Halo 3 is also the the fastest selling game of all time, so your point is moot. And also Halo 3 is awesome.

Hmm... I love how obviously biased you are. If McCain wins, half of america will lose hope in their country, and the world will shake their heads at the continuation of the disasterous republican policies and idealogies that have run america into the ground. And the only way he could win is, well, this. Enjoy!
