Here are some pictures from an Obama rally in Oregon on Sunday:

Can you believe that? I've seen reports from between 60,000 and 80,000 people.

I never thought I would see a crowd like that for a political rally. The way that he has inspired people in this country is just amazing.

ha! thats funny that the majority of the crowd is not very diverse. I would have thought otherwise.

Trumpetplyer23 · 19th May 2008, 04:28 PM

Wow, that is ALOT of people.

SamAlex728 · 19th May 2008, 04:30 PM

Yeah, my parents got stopped by an Obama motorcade.

sdc91 · 19th May 2008, 04:38 PM

I just saw that pic on the news!

Obama is really good at inspiring, but I'm not sure if that's real or just talk.

I just saw the video and only four porta-potties for all those people! I hope none of them had to go to the bathroom! Still....I'm glad so many people showed up!

i guess all we can do, speaking as a democrat, is hope that either hillary pulls off a miracle, or that obama isnt all just talk.
which is what he seems to me.
he has a cute message and all, but i want delivery. and thats what hillary would bring.

whatever america.

I would've held it in XD

After some of the recent things, I'm starting to think I might like obama as president...

I have to agree with Mr. Role Model. It seems like all Obama does is talk about what he's going to do, and doesn't say how he's going to do it. I prefer Hilary to be honest, but I'll be 3 weeks too young to vote, so it doesn't really matter. :P

omg thats so harsh!!!

politics seems so glamorous in the US compared to the UK.

Yeah if Hillary could pull off some sort of "miracle" that would be great. Because so far Obama seems to be all talk, and if he's elected let's hope he's not all talk.
