"I travel around the world. I occasionally play to big stadiums, crowds like this, just like Senator Obama does... I continue to find that wherever I go, America remains a repository for people's hopes, their desires. It remains a house of dreams." - Bruce Springsteen
With the election around the corner, a crowd of 80,000 gathered for a rally last night at the Cleveland Mall. It was the second of three stops in Ohio that saw a total of 165,000 people show up to hear Barack speak.
As the last light of the day left the sky in Cleveland, the crowd was treated to an acoustic set by Bruce Springsteen. Before launching into one of Barack’s signature campaign songs, Bruce told the crowd that, “Now is the time to stand with Barack Obama and Joe Biden, roll up our sleeves and come on up for the rising.”
Below is a video of Bruce's performance, along with his introduction of Barack and his family:
