奧巴馬：一聽米歇爾演講他就想哭

US President Barack Obama tells a Virginia campaign crowd that he will try not to let his daughters see him cry during the first lady's convention speech on Tuesday night.

Speaking to a large crowd of supporters in the military town of Norfolk, US President Barack Obama said he will spend Tuesday night at the White House, watching First Lady Michelle Obama's speech at the Democratic National Convention.

He told the crowd he hopes his daughters, Malia and Sasha, do not see him tear up during his wife's remarks. "When Michelle talks, I get a little misty," he said.

Mr Obama heads to Charlotte on Wednesday afternoon. This was his fifth campaign event in the past four days, including appearances in Iowa, Colorado and Ohio.

The US President highlighted what he said were differences between him and his rival, Republican Presidential candidate Mitt Romney.

"Now, the other side may not be eager to talk about their ideas, but on Thursday night I look forward to sharing mine with you," Mr Obama said.

"I will offer what I consider a better path forward, a path to create good jobs and strengthen the middle-class and grow our economy. The good news, Virginia, is that in just two months you get to choose which path we take," he said.
