Susan Burgess has known Hillary Clinton since before she was First Lady.

The Charlotte City Councilwoman, currently serving as mayor pro tem, will be a superdelegate at the Democratic National Convention, and so far she's the only one from North Carolina committed to Clinton.

She and her husband met the Clintons in 1990 at a Renaissance Weekend in Hilton Head, S.C. She said that the New York senator is much different from her public image.

"She is a very warm and wonderful person," she said.

Burgess, 61, was chosen as a superdelegate because she is currently chairing the National Democratic Municipal Officials Conference. She served as a regular delegate at the 2000 convention and on the rules committee in 2004.

She said she's also impressed with Barack Obama, however. Could she see herself voting for him in the right circumstances? 

"Of course I would, but not on the first ballot," she told Dome. "On the first ballot, I'm committed to Hillary Clinton."
