Kerry Pitches for Obama in Tacoma's Hilltop
It looks like Tacoma will be in the fray of the presidential elections and relevant.
Here is a video of former presidential candidate John Kerry pitching for Obama in Tacoma's Hilltop earlier this month.(Note to potential Feed Tacoma censor: although its true the presidential race is a national issue, like the issue of voting, John Kerry made this speech in Tacoma's Hilltop which is located in the heart of Tacoma. In that sense it is a Tacoma event which many Tacomans attended. The speech was taped by a Tacoma resident.)
