Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) on Tuesday picked up the presidential endorsement of freshman Rep. Patrick Murphy (D-Pa.), the only Iraq war veteran to serve in Congress.

“Congressman Murphy is a part of the new generation of American leaders that’s bringing a fresh voice to our nation’s capital,” Obama said Tuesday. “He knows that we need fundamental change in our politics and our foreign policy if we want to make the progress America so desperately needs.”
