Kid Reporter on the Scene: Alex Woods
There was excitement everywhere I went at the Democratic National Convention. The Denver Nuggets usually play basketball in the Pepsi Center. But last week, famous and important Democratic Party members took over the floor. Inside, I heard speeches by former President Bill Clinton, vice presidential nominee Joe Biden and 2004 presidential nominee John Kerry. After Biden's speech, Barack Obama made a surprise appearance. The crowd went wild!
I met Obama's campaign manager, delegates from all over the U.S. and other key players. I also got to talk about the events with reporters from TIME. It was the greatest assignment ever. Read all of my reports from Denver at timeforkids.com/election08.
