Barack Obama and Joe Hoeffel in Philadelphia

Barack Obama said, "Eighteen months ago, you didn't even know who I was. Just some skinny state senator. And now look."

The next Senator from Illinois came to Love Park today in Center City to endorse Joe Hoeffel, the next Senator from Pennsylvania. Hundreds of supporters rallied this afternoon.


Dr. King said: "The arc of history is long, but it bends toward justice."


He just leaned down because a woman asked him to "sign my baby." She said, "I want her to meet the first black president of the United States."


It was great to shake his hand. Here's Sarah with him right after she did.


He stayed and signed autographs for hundreds of people. I have one. I'm keeping it.


Change is gonna come.


Joe mingled with the crowd before his speech. Here he is with Sarah.


Joe basks in the glow of a well-deserved endorsment by Barack Obama.


Ego shot. Joe Hoeffel, Sarah, and me.
