Obama launches campaign amid fears of a jobs crisis: When Senator Barack Obama came to Richmond four years ago, Rio Bridges dropped everything. Then 25, he queued for four hours in the freezing cold to claim one of 13,000 spots in the city's Coliseum. "It felt like you just couldn't miss it," Mr Bridges remembers. "We were making history". While another 6,000 shivered outside, Mr Obama entered the amphitheatre to an ear-splitting roar. As flashbulbs popped and teenagers screamed, he declared: "You and I – together – will change this country and change this world". To Mr Bridges, "there was electricity in the building – I'll never forget it". Yet this 29-year-old music producer will not be among the crowds when Mr Obama comes back to this American city of 200,000 people, some 110 miles south of the White House, to officially launch his re-election campaign this morning [SATURDAY]. "I'm kinda busy," he said. http://tgr.ph/INAZ2M
