    “Integrity.”

    That’s the word Dexter used to sum up his support for the Obama-Biden ticket. Welcoming Vice President Biden to Danville, Virginia today, local supporters were clear about why they stand with him.

    Josh is on board because he wants “a better future for [his] boys.” Connie said, “I support the President because he supports women.” And Thomas said of Biden: “He’s in it for the right reason, and that’s the middle class.”

    Later, in Wytheville, the Vice President paid a visit to the excited crowd at Spiller Elementary School. Diana was fired up, saying “I want to continue moving forward and not go backwards.” And Carlene added a simple reason for her support: “I want to be counted.”
