Obama's Oregon Weekend

Richardson Endorses Obama in Oregon


By Joseph Friedrichs, 3-21-08

New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson endorsed Senator Barack Obama at a campaign event in Portland Friday.

“I believe he is the kind of once-in-a-lifetime leader that can bring our nation together and restore America’s moral leadership in the world,” Richardson said in a statement.

Obama will be in Oregon until at least Saturday making additional stops in Salem, Eugene and Medford. Richardson is scheduled to appear with Obama only at Memorial Coliseum in Portland. As early as 6 a.m., hours before Obama was scheduled to appear at the Coliseum, hundreds already were lined up in the Rose Quarter.
