Ralph Stanley Radio Ad for Barack Obama

Howdy, friends. This is Ralph Stanley, and I think I know a little something about the families around here.  And after the last 8 years, I know we all need a change.  And nobody's looking for a handout, but I think we could use a leader that's on our side. And I believe that leader is Barack Obama.

Barack'll cut taxes for everyday folks -- not big business -- so you'll have a little more money in your pocket at the end of the year.  He understands that our kids shouldn't have to leave our communities to find work. That's why Barack will make it easier to send your children to college and help create 5 million new jobs by investing right here at home.  I also know Barack is a good man. A father and devoted husband, he values personal responsibility and family first.

So please join me, Ralph Stanley, in supporting a true friend of the people who live right here in southwest Virginia.  Barack Obama is the change we need.

For more on Ralph Stanley's life, click here, including the fact that he "was born, grew up, and lives today in rural southwestern Virginia--'in a little town called McClure at a place called Big Spraddle, just up the holler' from where he moved in 1936 and has lived ever since in Dickenson County."
