Barack Obama's grandmother has died

Post by Danielle Masters »

Sadly she has died on election eve. It is too bad that she died today and wasn't able to hopefully see her grandson make history. May God be with the Obama's and may she rest in.

This is so sad.

Just got an email from one of the campaign workers who is at the Chicago HQ. He said "No one knows what to do".

It's sad that she won't be able to see the child she raised and battled for become the next President of the USA and the first African-American to do so, if Obama wins tomorrow.

A day away. How sad.

What can they really do? He just needs to carry on and finish up the election and then he can mourn. I would imagine that is what she would want him to do.
