I'M GOING TO SEE OBAMA TOMORROW!!!!!!!

I AM SO EXCITED, I can hardly type right now!!!!! He's coming to Las Vegas, and the JROTC leader at my high school was able to get tickets. Our kids might be there, I really don't know. All I know is that I'M GOING TO SEE OBAMA TOMORROW!!!! AND, I might be able to get up close! The Sgt. Major told me to call him as soon as I get there, and if there's room, he'll bring me up to the front.

I always seem to be two steps behind him. I've seen the motorcade a few times and once he waved at us on the corner. I thought about trying to catch him at the pentagon today, but I just didn't want to see him in that context. So good for you!!!!! i love to listen to "the professor".

have a GREAT time tomorrow!

i did stand about ten feet away from him when he was running for senator . one of most respected guys in town was an african american that was involved with the youth baseball for over 50 yrs. so he had his picture taken with obama. then someone in the crowded yelled out that the guy was a life long republican..obama laughed as shook the guys hand.

you could tell he was going places even then...!

My camera's loaded with fresh batteries...I'm hoping to get up close, which is a good possibility since my ticket was supplied by our ROTC commander. Not sure how well I'll sleep tonight, though!

I hope you take lots of photos and get to shake his hand. And try not to get crushed by the people behind you trying to reach for our President.
