3. Obama came to Dallas w/in blocks of where I work. Did me NO GOOD!
That's when I found out....

To be in his rally starting at 1 p.m., there was a line of THOUSANDS by 7:00 that morning! There were so many people in line, and it took so long for them to go thru security, that when his speech started at 1:00, they shut the doors, and shut out thousands of people who'd been standing in line for hours. The convention hall wasn't filled, but they had to shut the doors.

So that's why you see mainly young people at his rallies. I'm middle aged. Even if I'd taken off work the whole day, I can't stand in line for hours without going to the bathroom!!!!! And I would've had to have carried a portable chair 'cause I can't stand for five hours w/o sitting down!
