BOULDER, Colo.- President Barack Obama wasn't afraid to show off his Colorado knowledge at CU-Boulder Sunday.

The president made his 11th trip to Colorado and his second of the week.

On Tuesday he spoke at a rally at CSU Ft. Collins.

On Sunday he sympathized with a crowd of 13,000 over the Buffaloes' defeat in Saturday's Rocky Mountain Showdown.

He also blasted the Republican convention as a rerun that he said could have aired on Nick at Nite and repeatedly urged the youthful crowd to vote.

Obama noted that he has a pizza named after him at a local campus hangout he once visited called The Sink.

He also told the crowd that westerners understand how important it is to keep moving forward, a word that happens to be his campaign slogan.

Obamas idea of forward is; "backward", something I have heard people who voted for him last time have said. They also have said they won't vote for him again.

A better word than "court" said on Monday, Sep 3 at 2:57 PM

"Grooming" like all predators.

A word which happens to be Hitlers campaign slogan too.
