The "Walk": Obama in Hawaii in his old neighborhood

U.S. Sen. Barack Obama spent time with his grandmother this afternoon, then headed back to Honolulu International Airport around 3:40 p.m. to resume his presidential campaign.

Obama spent nearly two hours visiting his ailing grandmother this morning then took a brief walk in his old Makiki neighborhood before returning to the apartment.

People stood in the lobby of the Punahou Circle Apartments hoping to see Obama while others hoped to give him flowers or lei.

The property manager promised to deliver them.

1. How I wish everyone would leave him alone. I'd wish that for anyone

but I 'know' Barack and how hard he's worked and how difficult this must be.

3. O should have ordered the SS to keep cameras away for these two days

This should be private.

4. Someone tell that man to use the handrail on airplane steps

or at least not put his hands in his pockets while going down the steps.

That's a real tumbling hazard.
