If you didn’t get a chance to see Obama when he visited Bristol, VA, just days after becoming the Democratic party’s presumptive nominee for President, here’s a full video. (Beware, it could take a while to load because the clip is one hour and 25 minutes long.) It also features intros by the 9th district’s Congressman Rick Boucher and former Governor Mark Warner.
Extra bonus: Voice contributor and Obama organizer Laura Spielman can be seen rising to applaud enthusiastically when the video’s clock is between 1:46 and 1:55. A clip of her shaking Obama’s hand was also apparently shown on channel 10. Way to go, Laura!
Update: Laura Spielman sent us the following photo of her meeting Barack Obama at the rally in Bristol (Photo courtesy of Steve Cochran).
