President Obama Asks Americans To Choose His Path For The Future

Levi Rickert, editor-in-chief

CHARLOTTE, NORTH CAROLINA – Over chants of four more years,President Barack Obama accepted the Democratic Party’s nomination for a second term as President of the United States last night at the Time-Warner Cable Arena in Charlotte, North Carolina.

Some 22,000 thousand cheering Democrats filled the arena on the last night of the four day convention with delegates holding up signs with the reelection campaign’s theme Forward on them.

The President spoke of two paths of choices for the future of the country.

He spoke of about the environment. It is an issue that resonates with American Indians:

And yes, my plan will continue to reduce the carbon pollution that is heating our planet – because climate change is not a hoax. More droughts and floods and wildfires are not a joke. They’re a threat to our children’s future. And in this election, you can do something about it.”
