I've seen some pictures, and read something about how you maybe are a bit perplexed by people who seem to have a "reverence" for you, like that video of you with the lady and her young daughter who were crying when they met you while you were out canvasing. It probably seems a little over the top, I'm sure!
I thought I would try to explain it to you, because I know that I would have the same reaction, and I get tears in my eyes at so many videos, and during your talks, or speeches. I just cried again watching the video of you and Joe Biden popping into a restaurant in Indiana. I think it is because it is such a rare feeling, to actually BELIEVE that someone is so sincerely on our side. Times really ARE so unbelievably difficult right now, many of us are nearly lost in trying to find a way to survive and to give our kids a fair chance. And we soooo want to believe in the possibilities, so it truly has the feeling of a miracle, to finally feel that things are going to be ok. It's not that we think you are a messiah, or a savior or anything, it is just FINALLY we are seeing someone who believes in US, and THAT gives us faith and hope for our future, because you will give US the chance to make it work. It is overwhelming after what we have been through. I hope you understand and don't think we are crazy, those of us who may cry over you so much.
And thank you, and Joe Biden, for being such great role-models for families. It is exciting to think of our leaders being someone we can look up to, and I can only hope THAT will have a "trickle-down effect"
