Barack ObamaLook who's calling...
My daughter-in-law.Look who got the call!
Barack Obama in Brighton, Colorado
Hard-working volunteers rock with Barack!The presidential candidate wanted to make a few campaign calls. People there could call anyone they wanted, and hand him their cell phone. "This is Barack Obama..." he said.
Candice shook his hand. Her enthusiastic words were, "Hello! My Republican husband voted for you." He replied, "You must be very persuasive." Candice thoughtfully said, "Yep."
In the presence of greatness.And to think her Republican husband is my son.
He chose wisely.
He chose wisely.

: )
That's just lovely.
WOW! She's very lucky. Hooray for daughters-in-law!
It truly is history in the making, and she can always say she was there. I think that is so cool.
I'm glad Candice took the opportunity to meet Obama. I'll never forget being taken to hear JFK speak at the tabernacle when I was in 5th grade by my mom. She was a Republican, but thought it was historic to have the young president in our city. We couldn't get in, so we waited at the west entrance of the then Hotel Utah and he entered just several feet from us, looked directly at us and waved, we could have touched him..it was September of 1963..I'll never forget that moment.
Soooo cool! Great photos.
After hearing RFK in 1968, I stood next to his limo as he departed down State St. The crowd was shouting, "Bob-by! Bob-by! Bob-by!"
He was off to California where the rest is history.
History in the making, how exciting!
