President Barack Obama's rally Thursday in North Las Vegas – despite the continuing problems on the Eastern Seaboard related to Superstorm Sandy – may begin earlier than expected.
Obama is scheduled to speak Thursday at the Cheyenne Sports Complex, 3500 E. Cheyenne Avenue, near the Cheyenne campus of the College of Southern Nevada. The Obama campaign has not yet announced the time for the rally, but now says doors will open at 11:30 a.m., two hours earlier than the time announced in news releases Monday.
The president's latest visit to the valley comes just six days before Election Day, and one day before early voting ends in Nevada. Both the Obama and Romney campaigns have been promoting early voting in key battleground states, such as Nevada.
The "grassroots event" is free and open to the public, but tickets are required for entrance. One ticket per person will be distributed on a first-come, first-served basis at seven locations Tuesday and ending Wednesday at 6 p.m.
Ticket locations are as follows:
• College of Southern Nevada-Cheyenne (open until 9 p.m.); June Whitley Student Center, 3200 E. Cheyenne Ave., North Las Vegas
• Green Valley OFA-NV Field Office (open until 9 p.m.); 2925 Green Valley Pkwy., Henderson
• East Las Vegas Community Center (open until 9 p.m.); 250 N. Eastern Ave., Las Vegas
• OFA-NV Summerlin Field Office (open until 9 p.m.); 7469 W. Lake Mead Blvd., suite 170, Las Vegas
• Lone Mountain Plaza; trailer in parking lot; northwest corner of West Lone Mountain Road & North Decatur Boulevard, North Las Vegas
• Doolittle Community Center; 1950 J St., Las Vegas
• Cardenas Market (open until 7 p.m.); 4421 East Bonanza Rd., Las Vegas.






My best carny voice,"Hurry Hurry step right up! See the Obama/Biden show jam packed with lies, cover ups, and petty attacks!"
"Hurry people you do not want to miss this show! It is for a limited time and will never be seen again after November 6th!"
"See soon to be citizen Obama perform feats of illusion and distraction! Watch as he amazes the rubes with his tall tales from his magic teleprompter!"
"Hurry people this show will be over in just a week and The Amazing Obama and his sideshow freak The Blundering Boob Biden will be retired after these performances. Book now seats are limited!"
"soon to be citizen" in another four years, due to Republicans not learning their lesson from Sharron Angle. Just look at how close Santorum came to winning the nomination.
Don't forget! R-money is LOOKING OUT FOR YOU, THE MIDDLE CLASS! He has forgotten all about his billionaire buddies and the money they've made from the economy exactly as it is. They're going to change it so YOU, THE MIDDLE CLASS ARE BETTER OFF.
Sheldon Adelson always looks out for the little guy, you know, the kind of person who wastes time posting comments online.
Yes, the Republicans are looking out for YOU! Not big oil, not Wall Street, but YOU, the little guy!
Except for homos! Those guys suck because they're a threat to your marriage! Look at 'em! Demanding equal rights like they're some sort of colored boy from the '50s!
Gots to keep 'em in their place.
(I would have a little more respect for Republicants if they'd just be honest about their motivations, once in awhile.)

????????????????????????????????????????
Are you saying that Obama isn't a citizen but will get citizenship in four years. So it is true about the birth certificate.
If you look long and hard at the picture, you can actually find two white people in the picture. Nice to have token white people included.
Is this what we can expect from a President Romney:
Mitt Romney made another gaffe on his London trip Thursday by acknowledging he met with the head of Britain's MI6 intelligence agency, according to reports. Romney's meeting with MI6 head Sir John Sawers was not on the Republican's public schedule -- and Romney made a major blunder by revealing it, CBS News and The Guardian reported. "I can only say that I appreciated the insights and perspectives of the leaders of the government here and opposition here as well as the head of MI6 as we discussed Syria and the hope for a more peaceful future for that country," Romney told reporters at a press conference Thursday. Britain's Foreign and Commonwealth Office told CBS News that "Sir John Sawers meets many people, but we don't give a running commentary on any of these private meetings." As The Guardian pointed out, MI6 was not officially acknowledged until 1994. "For our American readership, this isn't like bragging you just met David Petraeus. The British take on the national secret intelligence service comes with an extra-heavy dollop of the whole secret thing," the Guardian's Tom McCarthy wrote.

On the same trip Romney was able to insult one of our closest allies when he questioned Britain's Olympic security precautions.
Romney's not ready for prime time.
They all got their hands out. Imagine that..
WELCOME AGAIN, PRESIDENT OBAMA!
You're always welcome in Vegas.
Just ignore the ignorant, hateful republicans who
don't know any better.
FOUR MORE YEARS FOR PRESIDENT OBAMA!!!
Good news people the clown is still coming to town. He is going to swing by the Jersey Shore then head back to Lake Las Vegas.
Nothing will keep this humanitarian from doing what is right. He will fly by all the people on the east coast freezing and seeing there homes destroyed. I heard he might even wave at them as he flies out here.

Demonizing poor people. What is this,the Dark Ages?
Dumbo: One half the population works to support the other half that won't. Not quite the dark ages...
First he will visit storm victims Jay-Z and Beyonce in their Manhattan penthouse.
Hopefully someone in the audience at one of these events will have the courage to ask about Benghazi. It's starting to smell worse than our hog farm up here on the "North Shore"!
Mitt Romney has already written off 47% of Americans as 'losers'. At a fundraising event on May 12 2012 Romney showed his true colors when he said:
'There are 47 percent of the people who will vote for the president no matter what. All right, there are 47 percent who are with him, who are dependent upon government, who believe that they are victims, who believe the government has a responsibility to care for them, who believe that they are entitled to health care, to food, to housing, to you-name-it -- that that's an entitlement. And the government should give it to them. And they will vote for this president no matter what'
'My job is not to worry about those people. I'll never convince them they should take personal responsibility and care for their lives'
