I shook Barack Obama's hand in Lancaster, PA

[BigD_95]

Im just excited that I actually got that close to him and was able to shake his hand. It was awesome that as a PA native that I actually got to go to a rally ( I guess I have to thank Hillary for that ).

Yesterday I went into York, PA and meant Ted Kennedy at the Obama head quarters.

Pretty exciting stuff!

I actually recorded the moment when I shook Obama's hand but Im not sure how I can post it. Also I have some pictures of the Lancaster Rally but again how do I post them?

1. You are very lucky

My daughter was at the Whistle Stop tour in Wynnewood, but she couldn't get anywhere near him. :( Too many people. Hey, that's a GOOD thing!!

2. Be sure to wash it very well. nt

6. Not only was that very immature, it was disgusting.

Why should he "wash it very well"? Does Obama carry germs in his skin? Is he rabid? WTH is wrong with you? You should've learned better in kindergarten.

17. Of course it is. It's allowed on DU now, tho, so there's not much we can do.

8. We watched that on C-Span...

Teddy looked good, seems to have lost weight,
and seemed very energized to be in all the campaign
excitement. It seemed almost history, a passing of the baton.

YOu are blessed.

14. when I got

to see Ted Kennedy it was around 3:30 I believe after the filming was done. The film crew was leaving when I got there. He basically came out of a room shook some hands and took pictures then walked across the street to the York Democratic office. ( I walked across the street with him )


Shaking hands with the next President was just...... well I dont know how to describe it. Just amazing.

Im trying to upload the Vid to youtube now.

15. How cool. And Ted Kennedy too? I've always wanted to meet Teddy! -eom

16. Lucky you!

When Obama came to Portland a few weeks ago I was in the nose-bleed section. Still, I wouldn't have missed it for the world.

Good on ya, that'll be a memory for a lifetime. :toast:

20. so you were`t raptured ?

you are telling us he`s just a man and not the messiah?

gee i thought he was....i have read that he was right here at the democratic underground...

i was several feet away from him in 2004 and he did`t seem to be the messiah...but i did`t get to shake his hand...
