U.S. Rep. David Price says Barack Obama can "change the equation."
In a conference call this afternoon, the Chapel Hill Democrat said that he was endorsing Obama because he can help bring independent voters in North Carolina to the Democratic column in November.
"With Barack Obama as our nominee, I believe we can turn North Carolina blue this year," Price said.
He also said he supports Obama's approach to the Iraq war, the use of security contractors by the U.S. military and the economy. He said Obama would also be in the "strongest position" to announce to the world "a new day in American diplomacy."
He said Obama would help "transcend the conflicts and resentments of the past" and energize a new generation of voters.
