Vegas Stories/American Stories

Last weekend was probably the most important weekend of my life.
Not everyone will be able to say they took a trip, hundreds of miles, to help take part in the more important election we'll probably ever seen in our lifetime.
Regardless of the out come of this election, we can say we were part of history. We can say that we proudly gave one weekend to make sure that this country was put on the right track and the voices of millions upon millions of people will actually be heard.
13 people went to Las Vegas on October 24th, 2008. 2 days later one group returned, exhausted, drained, exhilarated, delirious and absolutely invigorated about what they witnessed.

Thousands of people, reflecting the thoughts and hopes of a nation, all energized, entranced, excited and for the first time in a lot of people's lives, hopeful about what was about to come next.

Thanks to everyone who came and everyone who supported. It was unforgettable and fantastic and I hope the experiences we bring back will make everyone realize the impact and importance of this election.



To end it, here is Barack Obama's address to the nation that aired last night
