I took this shot in October of 2005. That was the year that the White Sox won the World Series, when Barack Obama was a U.S. Senator from Illinois. I went to the ticker-tape parade that Chicago held to honor the White Sox victory. It got a little too crowded for me, so I took a side street and Barack Obama happened to be walking by at the same time. There was a woman next to me urging him to run for president; he broke into his famous smile when she said that.

The 2012 campaign starts now! That's why I started my own grassroots fundraising page. Will you support President Obama by making a donation of $5 or more to my page today? Or start your own...
Thanks!
