The Grio | President Barack Obama wiped away tears as he thanked supporters the day after elections for all their hard work in the past year.
The president made a surprise visit to his Chicago campaign office Wednesday to show appreciation to campaign staffers and volunteers.
In a five-minute video released by his campaign yesterday, the president shares the story of how he moved to Chicago at 25 years old, knowing he wanted to make a difference but not knowing where or how to start. It was as a community organizer for several south side churches that Obama learned about “the grit and resilience of ordinary people.”
He said he also learned how to work with others for a common purpose and how to deal with disappointment when it happened.
“I grew up,” Obama told the crowd. “I became a man during that process.”
