Hells yes....Barack Obama will be in Bristol tonight for a town hall at Virginia High. I believe it's already full so if you don't have a ticket you probably can't get in, but be sure to watch the news tonight anyway!
I think it is AWESOME that the Democratic nominee for President of the United States is coming to southwest VA - where he has to know he won't win - just because. It shows he's putting his money where his mouth is when he says he cares about problems is rural areas, which is impressive from a guy who has spent most of his life working for inner city folks. I know it's just one visit, but presidential candidates don't often pay visits to our little neck of the woods, so please take note. That's all.
