The official Barack Obama for President campaign headquarters opened it's doors, Tuesday evening.

The headquarters, located in Downtown Greenville, hosted city leaders and campaign volunteers. The headquarters will serve as ground zero for Eastern North Carolina, campaign recruitment, canvassing and planning. We spoke with city council member Rose Glover, who told us why it was so important for the headquarters to be located in Greenville.

The new office will oversee 12 counties in the area: Beaufort, Carteret, Craven, Greene, Hyde, Jones, Lenoir, Martin, Pamlico, Pitt, Wayne and Wilson Counties. The McCain camp has yet to announce if and where it plans to open an Eastern Carolina office.

We do not need a president that doesnt acknowledge the america flag. If he becomes president is he going to try to change it to? he just wants to be in power, he doesnt love this country and want to improve it. He wants to change America to something he wants it to be, not what it needs to be.

To Imapiratearghhh; Saddam Hussein was not Hitler? Are you kidding me? You need to get your head out of the sand. I am not going to recap all of his heinous actions and thousands of his own citizens that he murdered. As far as our involvement being needed? It absolutely was. To keep this is as simple as I can for you, lets use this example: A Huge bully has you down and is pounding you relentlessly. Another even larger man is walking by. What would you want to happen? A. He walks on as if nothing is happening? or B. He jumps in and pounds him into oblivion and saves your helpless self? I assume you would choose B. Well the helpless citizens of Iraq also chose B. Saddam has been pounded into oblivion. I am sure that the majority of the Iraqi citizens that are ever so close to living in peace are glad we jumped in. Regardless of the many reasons that may have motivated us initially, it is a good thing for them and the rest of the world we did. God Bless America!
