Obama reintroducing himself to electorate
Despite the long primary campaign, voters in several areas of the United States really don't know the likely Democratic nominee, Jim Margolis, Obama's media adviser, told The Washington Post.
"They don't know the full story," Margolis said. "They don't have a complete sense of what motivates him, what are the biographical points of his life that have made him the person that he is today and what he wants to do as president."
Early on in the run-up to the November elections, Obama's campaign bought air time in 18 states and opted out accepting public funding for his challenge. His first television ad provides a biography for the voters, in part to counter misinformation spread about the candidate, Margolis and other said.
"You begin a new campaign with an introduction," said Valerie Jarrett, one of Obama's closest friends and confidants. "You can't presume that everybody was paying attention during the primary season. So let's start with basics. He describes his roots, his philosophy, his love of country. That's a really good start."

Obama reintroducing himself
Following the primaries, and tons of small donations for low-income Americans, we now know where Barack Obama stands on the two most important issues: the war, and poverty/the economy. Upon winning the primary, he clarified this for us.
On the current wars, Obama will, ignoring the overwhelming opposition of the American people (and the world), keep the mindless slaughter going. On poverty, he will firmly ENFORCE workfare labor requirements...which have been enforced since 1997, and which have played such a powerful role in breaking unions, suppressing wages, and increasing US poverty.
So, yeah, as the old song by the Who, "Won't Get Fooled Again", goes: "Meet the new boss, same as the old boss..."

obama "reintroducing" himself
It is all well and good that obama is trying to connect with the American People and tell his "story".
My question is, with all the states running his "bio", why is not the state of Kansas, his home state,not part of this "introduction?
a deliberate move or oversite?
