Barack Obama was in Iowa Monday and Tuesday to meet with the people and unveil a new healthcare plan he’s proposing. The plan calls for everyone not covered by insurance to be covered by the end of his term in office.
Senator Obama visited Iowa City, Cedar Rapids and Davenport during his brief tour. ONE was able to meet up with him at a rally in Cedar Rapids where he answered questions about his healthcare policy as well as questions about the war in Iraq.
Though his time was short, he took a moment for a quick photo.
