Obama to visit Zanesville
Democrat Barack Obama is headed back to Ohio on Tuesday, July 1, this time to visit Zanesville in Ohio’s Appalachian region.
Obama will stop by the Eastside Community Ministry which provides food, clothing, emergency relief and other services to needy families, his campaign said.
The event is not open to the general public due to space constraints at the ministry, the campaign said.
The trip appears to be part of Obama’s effort to shore up support in a part of the state that was unfriendly to him in the Democratic presidential primary. Sen. Hillary Clinton got about two-thirds of the vote in Muskingum County, which includes Zanesville, while Obama got about 31 percent. Zanesville is located about 50 miles east of Columbus.
Obama last was in the state on June 13 for a meeting with seniors in Columbus. Republican John McCain campaigned in Ohio last week, holding town hall meetings in Cincinnati and Lordstown and fundraisers in Cincinnati and Hunting Valley, a Cleveland suburb.

“And my hope is that we will get some good treaties with strong protections on behalf of the American workers.” I am sure President Obama will do all that is possible to make your wish come true, Ethel. Now if you just understood what you said. Eevery thing you said up to the word,”Sen. McCain”, describes the Democratic platform. Thank you for your support. I thank you and Sen. Obama thanks you.

Unfortunately, the way the economy is going or I should say is not going, we are going to have to think global and get other countries to take our exports and import things we need . I do not think we can go on with an isolation policy or unilateral thinking. So all the treaties must be re-examined and considered for the best interests of our country, the workers, and the Unions. And I do not think NAFTA is a “dirty” word. The rights of the workers and the Unions should be a key part of getting excellent trade ageements. I am glad that Sen. McCain has the foresight to talk to some of our trading partners. And my hope is that we will get some good treaties with strong protections on behalf of the American workers.

Its real funny that McCain didn’t talk about NAFTA while he was in Ohio, he sure had a lot to say about it in Canada.
