A painting of me

Obama as we knew him... man and boy. ⇒

   29 October 2008, early evening

"Schoolfriends remember his love for comic books, basketball and teasing the girls. A former boss recalls him as a young man running a community project in Chicago. A fellow senator remembers being beaten by him at poker. Gifted student, quiet persuader, charismatic speaker, loyal friend... We speak to the people who knew Barack Obama best, revealing an intimate, often touching, portrait of a man on the brink of greatness."

  2. No, but I heard it was really well put together. I can’t believe his campaign has enough money to air a 30 minute infomercial. US elections are ridiculous. He’s been campaigning for something like 20 months now. Of course, I’m freaky excited now.

Don't be shy, you can comment too!

 
Some things to keep in mind: You can style comments using Textile. In particular, *text* will get turned into text and _text_ will get turned into text. You can post a link using the command "linktext":link, so something like "google":http://www.google.com will get turned in to google. I may erase off-topic comments, or edit poorly formatted comments; I do this very rarely.
