News from Headquarters
Today I thought I'd share with you some of the comments from the press release officially announcing Sen. Barack Obama as the 2008 Democratic-NPL State Convention keynote speaker.
The comments are from our congressional delegation:
"Senator Obama is a person of rare quality, and his message of can-do optimism and hope is one that I believe resonates in North Dakota. He shares our Midwestern values, and he can unite this country," said Senator Conrad. "Senator Obama has shown that he has what it takes to win in states like North Dakota, Minnesota and Wyoming. He's drawn more people to the democratic process, and that can only be good for the country."
Senator Dorgan said: "Senator Obama has an extraordinary ability to inspire and motivate people throughout the country, and it is wonderful that he is planning to attend North Dakota's state Democratic Convention. Like many other states, North Dakota has responded to Senator Obama's message of hope and optimism by giving him an impressive 62 percent of the vote in our caucus this year. His presence shows that he intends to compete nation-wide for the Presidency, which is good for the country, democracy, and North Dakota."
"North Dakota Democrats showed their strong support for Senator Obama on February 5th, and I'm thrilled to have the potential Democratic presidential nominee as the keynote speaker at our convention," Congressman Pomeroy said. "Senator Obama has a powerful message of hope and change that resonates across party lines and across the country. I look forward to hearing him deliver that message to North Dakota Democrats at our convention in April."
Our delegation members aren't the only folks excited about the Obama visit to the Alerus Center in Grand Forks on April 4. We've received many calls and emails here at headquarters regarding tickets for the event. For your information, details of this event are still being worked on. We'll keep you posted on further developments. As soon as we finalize these details, they will be posted on our Web site: www.demnpl.com. Be sure to check there early next week.

See you there!
