Our Sense of Common Purpose

We are in the final days of this campaign. On Saturday morning, our campaign office received a busload of sixty college students from the Boston area.

I was amazed that these young adults would feel so strongly about Obama and his message, that they would give up a Saturday to come to New Hampshire and canvass in our communities.

When they walked through the door of our office, they were met by a loud round of applause from all of us. 

A moment that will always be with me.

The two students that I was responsible for had never canvassed before, but were very anxious to start their turf.  I gave them some suggestions- told them what has worked for me, dropped them off at Union Road, and wished them well.

One of the young adults is an exchange student from France. He's not even able to vote on November 4th.

This is a defining moment in our country's history~
