Photo of the Week: U.S. Sen. Barack Obama

I took (stole) this photo off of Flickr, it was taken by Grizzly Lightning. It is a photo of U.S. Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., during his mid-August visit to Central Illinois.



In this photo Sen. Obama waits to start a town hall meeting on the campus of Eastern Illinois University in Charleston, Ill., Tuesday, Aug. 15, 2006. It is a moving photo for me because of the power and energy that Barack brings to a room, along with the vast openness of the background of this photo.
