Congressman John Larson to Endorse Barack Obama
for President
Congressman John B. Larson CT-01, Vice Chair of the Democratic
Caucus will announce his endorsement of Senator Barack Obama for
President in a rally this Saturday. Details of the event will
follow.
Congressman Larson said:
“Senator Barack Obama has written a book called The Audacity of
Hope. His election this fall is about the audacity of change –
the audacity to believe that together we can heal this divided
country and improve our standing around the world.
I believe Senator Barack Obama is the embodiment
of the kind of change the American people are looking for. I
have nothing but respect for Senator Clinton and President
Clinton. But, Obama is transcendent. His election to the
presidency can inspire our nation and immediately send a message
of real change to people around the globe.
Obama has proven that he can inspire a whole
generation of Americans who care about our standing on the
international stage, our environment and the prospect of a
resurgent America.
In Iowa, I saw firsthand the outpouring of new
voters and the enthusiasm that Senator Obama generates.
On a trip to Europe in January, I heard from parliamentarians
and citizens alike, who wondered aloud if Americans would
embrace the change and worldview that Obama symbolizes.
I believe the time is now.
That is why I think it is important for the
people of Connecticut’s first district to know that I support
Senator Obama for President.
I believe Barack Obama can change our state, our country and our
world.”
