Ms. Schwarzenegger Backs Obama!
LOS ANGELES, California (CNN) -- California first lady Maria Shriver
on Sunday endorsed Sen. Barack Obama for the Democratic nomination for
president, becoming the latest member of the Kennedy clan to line up
behind the senator from Illinois.
Maria Shriver, niece of President Kennedy and Sen. Edward Kennedy,
endorses Sen. Barack Obama for president at a rally Sunday in Los
Angeles, California.
Shriver, the wife of California Republican Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger,
told supporters at an Obama rally in Los Angeles that the state was
"at the epicenter of change." California's primary is the largest of
about two dozen contests scheduled for this week's Super Tuesday
contest.
"I would ask you to go out, to follow your heart, to be proud that
you're doing that, and remember that so goes California, so goes the
nation," she said.
Shriver is the niece of Massachusetts Sen. Edward Kennedy and
President Kennedy. Both his daughter, Caroline Kennedy Schlossberg,
and the Massachusetts senator have endorsed Obama in the past week.
During Sunday's event, Schlossberg appeared with Shriver, Obama's
wife, Michelle, and talk-show host Oprah Winfrey.
"I'm proud to be standing here not just with these women, but with all
of you -- different races, different age groups I'm sure, Democrats
and independents alike -- because you believe," she said. "You believe
in each and every one of yourselves, most importantly. And you believe
that you have found someone who believes in you."
