Legendary Bluegrass Artist Ralph Stanley
Endorses Barack Obama
Transcript:
"Howdy Friends, This is Ralph Stanley, and I
think I know a little somethin' about the
families around here. And after the last
eight years, I know we all need a change.
Now, nobody's lookin' for a handout, but
I think we could use a leader who's on our
side. And I believe that leader's Barack
Obama.
Barack'll cut taxes for everyday folks,
not big business, so you'll have a little
more money in your pocket at the end of the
year. He understands that our kids shouldn't
have to leave our communities to find work.
That's why Barack'll make it easier to send
your children to college, and help create
five million new jobs, by investin' right
here at home.
I also know Barack is a good man, a
father and a devoted husband. He values
personal responsibility, and family first.
So please join me, Ralph Stanley, in
supporting a true friend of the people, who
live right here in South-west Virginia.
Barack Obama is the Change We Need."
