Michelle Obama speaks at the Democratic National Convention in Denver, Colorado

Michelle Obama's text of her speech


Caroline Kennedy took the stage and told the crowd that she had never found a person who inspired her in the same way that her father inspired so many Americans -- until Barack Obama.

She then introduced her "Uncle Teddy" and a short video tribute to the legendary Senator played on the big screen...

When Senator Kennedy strode onto the stage, dignified and energetic as ever, the entire crowd stood and erupted in continuous applause. Teddy spoke eloquently about the issues that he has championed throughout his life, most notably his dream of health care for every single American.

"There is a new wave of change all around us, and if we set our compass through we will reach our destination," said Senator Kennedy. "The hope shall rise again, and the dream lives on."

Here are some photos and video from this extraordinary event...

MICHELLE OBAMA COMES TO RHODE ISLAND



My brother, the Obamacan, voting in his first Caucus, Tuesday night on the island of Maui changed his party for this one time from Republican to Democrat so that he could vote for Barack. As you may know, Hawaii went for Barack with a spread of 52% points.

This week, I've had to limit my time blogging. You know, I've had to live a life : ) I am getting the house ready for an Obama House Party here in Rhode Island, that I am having next Monday. We have our Primary March 4 ~ the same day as Texas, Ohio, Vermont and us, the little state of Rhode Island. Wednesday, this week, Michelle Obama came and spoke in Warwick, RI. The advance press was almost non-existent, but still we had a good turn-out. I would say over 2,000 welcoming people attended. Our RI Attorney General Lynch followed the singing of our National Anthem, followed with Craig Robinson, the brother of Michelle Obama and the head boys basketball coach at Brown University. Then Michelle gave us a speech.

I volunteered to help out, which amounted to getting attendees to sign in and getting people to sign up to volunteer leading up to the Primary. Edward Mutanguha came and was so excited. Edward is from Kigali, Rwanda and is the sweetest young man. He says that the people back home in Rwanda (Africa) are so excited and watching Barack Obama's journey very closely.

I briefly talked to our past U.S. RI Senator Lincoln Chafee. Lincoln Chafee, Republican lost his reelection to the Freshman Senator Sheldon Whitehouse in 2004. Barack Obama came to Rhode Island to campaign for Sheldon Whitehouse and now Sheldon has endorsed and is campaigning for Hillary Clinton. And Lincoln Chafee has endorsed Barack Obama!

Conozca a Barack Obama

While there, I met Hector Racine, a Spanish political journalist, who writes for a Spanish weekly newspaper with readers in Rhode Island and southeastern Massachusetts. His newspaper is New England Expreso. Hector said he would teach me Spanish and I could teach him English. We traded contact information.

Pictures I took didn't turn out well. But here are a few....




Michelle Obama speaking February 20, 2008 in Warwick, Rhode Island



This article ~ Younger set gets excited by election ~ was in our local paper ~ The Newport Daily News, Wednesday. On the same day, my little press release about my Obama House Party was also in the paper ~ surrounded by a bigger article mostly about Hillary Clinton. That night, I received a couple of phone calls. One call was from an 87 year old man who loves Barack and met him when Barack came to RI to campaign for Sheldon Whitehouse in '04. He wants an Obama bumper sticker for his car. And I received a call from a Republican who is a solid supporter of Barack Obama and volunteered to canvas for him here in RI.

Just because I feel like it ~ a song . . . .

DO YOU WANNA DANCE?

I have spoken about my Republican brother who is going to vote for Barack Obama next Tuesday in Hawaii ~ he admits Barack is the first Democratic Presidential candidate that he has ever voted for in his 61 years. He wanted me to give him some help in how to respond to those who believe the lies and rumors about Barack, so he can be ready the next time someone claims these things as truth and used to be against Barack Obama as President. I will include just one of many sources that I sent to him tonight about Barack NOT EVER BEING A MUSLIM ~ Not that all Muslims are bad.

MICHELLE OBAMA ~ A WOMAN OF INTEGRITY AND STRENGTH

Change Agent

First Lady in Waiting

Who needs a warm-up campaign? Having scaled down her career to support her husband’s political goals, Michelle Obama says “it’s now or never” for the couple to take the White House. As Barack gathers momentum, Michelle speaks candidly about America’s need for change, and a different kind of political marriage.

As Michelle Obama strolls around Mack’s Apples Pick-Your-Own orchard greeting people at the Londonderry children’s fair, she seems relaxed and friendly, her casual manner belying the pressing schedule that just whisked her from Chicago to New Hampshire and will soon rush her off to an afternoon packed with other events.


But when she addresses the crowd, there is no mistaking her sense of urgency as she makes an impassioned case for her husband’s presidential candidacy. “I am desperate for change—now,” she says, “not in 8 years or 12 years, but right now. We don’t have time to wait. We need big change—not just the shifting of power among insiders. We need to change the game, because the game is broken. When I think about the country I want to give my children, it’s not the world we have now. All I have to do is look into the faces of my children, and I realize how much work we need to do.”
