10. When he was campaigning in Iowa I was in a small group meeting

with him before an appearance. When he came in the room we stood and clapped in recognition. A modest smile crept over his face and he moved his hands to stop the applause and motion to sit down. And I will never forget what he said: "C'mon it's just me. It's just Barak."
I believe Obama is a truly humble man who will never forget his roots.
