Barack Obama: “The strength of our democracy has always rested on our ability to hear each other out.”

Please join me in supporting Sherrod Brown. He’ll always fight for Ohio.

People need to “rediscover what’s the story we tell about how we’re going to live together, and see each other, and recognise each other, and disagree, and yet, still care for each other”.

This race is going to be close. It could determine which party controls the Senate and whether Ohioans can count on the people in Washington to be fighting for you.

And I will fight for that, even if I don’t always think it’s going to win.
