During the rally, I stood next to political news reporter, Michael Mahoney, of KMBC TV-9. Professional photographers, amateur photographers, news stations, and radio broadcasters flanked the press platform to capture a glimpse of Michelle while at the podium.
Many of you probably saw my Barack Obama blog entry when he came to Kansas City last year. I believe that every one in this country knows that no matter what happens in this election, it will be written in our history books that a African-American was the first presidential nominee in U.S. history.
I believe it's a general consensus that our country is in a terrible emotional, economical and political situation. Our country needs a new vision, someone with strong shoulders and willing to allow our heavenly father to rebuild our countries stability. So whom ever you are voting for McCain/Palin or Obama/Biden, listen to your heart and exercise your right to vote!
Below are photos from the rally.

One should have known Royal Photography would be at this occassion to capture the feeling like no other. I had the opportunity to attend as well, it was powerful. I was so happy to see my community so excited, invigorated, and charged to "Get Out The Vote". It was a pleasure to hear Mrs. Obama speak so charmingly of her husband, possibly the furture President of America. Thank you Sam, you never cease to amaze.
U GO SAM!!!!! GREAT SHOTS! I’M SO PROUD TO KNOW THE PHOTOGRAPHER!!!

Hey Sam:
I got a glimpse of you at the Michelle Obama rally. It was great to see you at work. I also got a chance to see some of the pix you took - a friend passed them on to me today. As always great job! Looking at the pictures makes me think of how great a job you did at my wedding.
