President Barack Obama made his case for a second term with
his speech at the Democratic National Convention in Charlotte, N.C. on
Thursday night.
The president delivered his remarks at the Time Warner Cable Arena
after the threat of severe weather forced the event to be moved indoors.
Obama was previously scheduled to give his speech at Bank of America
Stadium.
Vice President Joe Biden was also among the big name Democrats to speak at the convention Thursday evening.
"We're on a mission to move this nation forward -- from doubt and downturn, to promise and prosperity," Biden
said. ----

"But
we don’t think that government is the source of all our problems – any
more than are welfare recipients, or corporations, or unions, or
immigrants, or gays, or any other group we’re told to blame for our
troubles.
Because we understand that this democracy is ours."

"So
long as I'm Commander-in-Chief, we will sustain the strongest military
the world has ever known. When you take off the uniform, we will serve
you as well as you've served us – because no one who fights for this
country should have to fight for a job, or a roof over their head, or
the care that they need when they come home." -President Barack Obama
