Barack Obama spoke to thousands of supporters in a rally in Washington Square Park Thursday:




Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama told thousands at a rally Thursday that he would bring serious change to Washington if elected.

The Illinois senator, speaking in front of the landmark arch in Washington Square Park in lower Manhattan’s Greenwich Village, said that to truly effect change partisan politics must be stopped and the people must have access once again to the federal government. […]

Obama, wearing dark blue slacks and a light-blue dress shirt with an open collar and rolled-up sleeves, came on stage to Kanye West’s inspirational song “Touch the Sky,” as thousands, including many college students, crammed into the park near New York University.

And here’s a musical recap from the Obama campaign, which is pretty cool:
