Scenes from the trail: Obama's 'caminata'


Scenes from the trail: Obama's 'caminata'


Posted: 03:05 PM ET

From CNN Political Producer Chris Welch

BAYAMON, Puerto Rico (CNN) — Barack Obama talked to supporters along a parade route in Bayamon, Puerto Rico, Saturday. The event was referred to as a "caminata," a traditional parade for a candidate on the island.

Standing on the wooden box, Obama told supporters, "I am absolutely confident that if that we keep on working hard, there's no reason why we cant win here in Puerto Rico and if we win Puerto Rico we will win the nomination and if we win the nomination, we will win the general election."

2. I wish i could have seen Senator Obama today
I support Senator Clinton but it would have been nice to see him in person. But Old San Juan is tourist central and finding parking space on a Saturday afternoon is way too problematic.

4. Just curious. Why do you support Hillary Clinton over Barack Obama?
What has she done and said to earn your support?

5. Me too.
I have not been able to get an honest answer yet as to why the PR people are so inclined toward Sen Clinton.

Your input will be widely appreciated. :hi:

Why does Hillary Clinton continue on when Barack Obama now has a majority of pledged delegates and her campaign is almost $20 million in debt?
Counting Florida? to destroy Obama with the pretense you are doing it for the women of the world. I am one of your former women supporters, Hillary. Get out!

By the way, if Hillary can’t run a campaign without debt, how would she run the country?
