Barack Obama's campaign used Flickr, a photo sharing service on the Internet, to post a photo stream of then Presidential Nominee Barack Obama on campaign trail. Included in these photographs is a stream from election night, November 4, 2008. It shows the Obama family watching coverage of the elections and the family going on stage to make his acceptance speech (Obama Victory Speech in Front of Over 200,000).
The following is from the profile on Flickr: I was fortunate to be able to grow up seeing America from varied viewpoints. My childhood was spent in Hawaii and Indonesia. After college I worked as a community organizer on the South side of Chicago focusing on improving living conditions in poor neighborhoods. I came to understand that to truly solve the problems facing our communities, it would take a change in our laws and our politics. I ran and served for seven years in the Illinois state Senate, where I fought for expanding children's health care, providing tax cuts for the working poor and enacting welfare reform. In 2004, I was elected to the U.S. Senate, where I have worked to pass laws securing dangerous weapons and making government more accountable. I have also opposed the Iraq war from the start, and believe that we need to bring our troops home so we can refocus on the wider struggle against terrorism. Of all my life experiences, I am most proud of my wife Michelle and my daughters Malia and Sasha. "The Arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice." (MLK) |
