Personal Appeal

You will hear many reasons to vote for Barack Obama if you watch the Democratic National Convention this week.
Congressman Baron Hill addressed the Indiana Delegation here in Denver today and got emotional at one point.
Hill shared how his son-in-law, Josh Hamilton, died of cancer just over a month ago and how Barack Obama took time out to make a personal phone call to Hamilton about a week before he passed away. Hill says Obama told Hamilton to keep fighting and said the phone call is evidence of the kind of person Obama really is.
