    Koran in Virginia

    Koran was in the audience at Loudoun County High School last night to see President Obama. After the speech, he shared his thoughts on the President's message—and explained why he's committed to getting out the vote this November:

    "Tonight was so awesome—it was great to see him speak again. I’m lower-middle-class, and there aren’t many of us here in Loudoun County, but the President’s message really resonated with me. I know that he supports me.

    "I saw him in ’07, and he inspired me to get off the couch and get involved. I’m fired up to do it this time around too, and I’m doing everything I can to get my friends and family involved. I understand now that it really is up to our generation to make the change we want to see in the world."
