Come one, Come all

They are young. Perhaps it is the growing trend in politics. Start them young and get them to the polls early.

It isn’t just a white  aristocratic thing to do anymore.

Voting is for everyone. It is a right. It is a privilege. It is the 26th Amendment.

When the music from James Brown to Bruce Springsteen echoed through the Fort Worth Convention Center, there was an attitude of change.

There were more than just the AARP coming out to see a congressman speak.

It was black, white, Hispanic, Asian, old, young, rich and poor standing in wait.

Nobody was turned away from the man who professes he is a “change we can believe in.”

From the press row, the arena looks more and more crowded.  There are more people in here than have ever shown up for a Fort Worth Brahmas hockey game and more were here than were ever in attendance for the Fort Worth Flyers basketball team.

Families are gathered together to see someone who they trust can change the nation.  He already changed the face of politics, the next thing is to see if he can change the face of the White House and eventually the Face of a Nation.
