My "Golden Ticket"
Welcome to Jamestown, NC
The President was safe and secure
with lots of news coverage (including yours truly)
at the Mary Perry Ragsdale Family YMCA venue for the "bus tour" stop.
My copy of the American Jobs Act
Finding my seat
among Americans of all walks of life;
Americans through and through.
The press box was filled with broadcasters from all over
and from the floor, your White House tweetup spokesman for today.
The following is a tweet-by-tweet (with a few video inserts and photos) of President Obama's speech:
To all the children at Cathedral School in Raleigh, NC, I hope you enjoy the #whtweetup of President Obama's American Jobs Act today!

The weight of the Jobs Act does not address other issues like taxing unemployment checks and other hardships. #whtweetup

Waiting for President Obama's motorcade to leave so we can exit the YMCA here in Jamestown, #NC. #whtweetup
12:08 PMAnd so ends my detour to Jamestown, NC, today, where I took a short step to the left and joined a majority of Democrats in hearing the President talk about real change for Americans. I don't agree with all of the provisions in his plan, but for those I am in favor, I hope that both parties in the Senate and Congress will quit playing games with the lives of average Americans and remember that we put them in office to do the right things for all of us, not just their favorites.
What a memorable experience this was, both to be there for the speech as well as to be able to share the experience with all of you.
