Barack Obama: “Thank you Davis Enterprise.”


Senator Obama: “I would like to thank the recent supporting comments from the Davis Enterprise Team, and reiterate that I intend to honor the trust that the American people have placed in me.”

The Davis Enterprise:

“Obama on Education”

“Senator Obama has been pushing for a bill that will increase the federal Pell grant awards from $4,310 to $5,400 by 2012. He has also been pushing for another bill that will cut interest rates for student loans by half.
If Barack Obama is elected for president, he will have to prove what he is worth and that he is a man of the people. To redo the NCLB will be a tremendous task for him but with Obama already pushing for other education bills to pass, he seems like the man that will stand by his words.”

“Time For Change”

“Although other candidates talk of having more experience, Obama brings a fresh look at these issues and has sparked interest in many first time voters. He has won a lot of votes from voters interested in change. Students at UC Davis can especially relate to his support for ending the war, providing education tax credits and reducing waste. He is a strong supporter of energy programs that can reduce our dependence on foreign oil.
I think Obama will be a great choice as President."
