US Presidency
2010

Mayor, you're on. That's a good bunch of folks we got here in Ohio, working hard. Which is why I am glad to be back and let's face it, it's nice to be out of Washington once in a while. I want to thank Connie I want to thank Connie, who introduced me. I want to thank her and her family for being here on behalf of her sister, Natoma. I don't know if everybody understood that Natoma is in the hospital right now, so Connie was filling in. It's not easy to share such a personal story, when your sister who you love so much is sick. And so I appreciate Connie being willing to do so here today, and and I want everybody to understand that Connie and her sister are the reason that I am here today. See, Connie felt it was important that her sister's story be told. But I want to just repeat what happened here. Last month, I got a letter from Connie's sister, Natoma.
