“I don’t see the kind of excitement that was there during the first time that Obama ran. What is see is despair. What I see is lack of hope.” Obama created excitement & hope among voter. It didn’t just happen. I was there in Coatesville, PA in 2008.

 

Activists push back against voter apathy in key battleground Michigan.

"I don't see the kind of excitement that was there during the first time that Obama ran."

When candidate Obama made his live call the talk in the room was, “I hope he doesn’t make us all cry again.”

The Chester County Democratic Committee members in Coatesville witnessed the best operated political campaign we ever had. 

"Yes We Can" by Stephanie Phillips:

On Election Day November 2008 I called Coatesville PD to Coatesville’s 1st Ward where an intoxicated man working for State Rep. Tim Hennessey was passing out Republican palm cards. He was assaulting people lined up to vote. 

In Pennsylvania only PA State Constables are permitted to make

PA State Constable Kenny Hopton was at Coatesville’s Ward 4.2. I told him what was happening at the other end of town at Coatesville’s 1st Ward at the West End Firehouse. 

He called Coatesville Police and told them to follow what I would tell them and handed his phone to me. I told the officer about Hennessey’s employee assaulting voters. 

I got to the West End just as an officer pulled up. Keith Gargus a local Democratic volunteer waved him off. 

An Obama staffer talked down Hennessey’s unruly campaign worker. He was cordial to voters the rest of the day.

Abandoning Obama’s OFA left Trump alone on a superhighway to voters. Fake populist Donald Trump accelerated around the gridlocked RNC & DNC.
