my son says he is amazing in person, and it's much different than on tv. Did you find that too?

Something about seeing him speak in person is so inspirational -- you feel obligated, in a good way, to do whatever you can to make this world a better place. I got a little of that from his books as well, but I feel like a lot of the inspiration is lost on tv. Once you attend an Obama speech, it's hard not to leave and dedicate additional personal efforts to helping someone, somewhere.
