Jim Neal, a Democratic candidate for U.S. Senate, has endorsed Barack Obama for president.
In an announcement this week, Neal wrote, "I have seen Barack Obama show the sincerity and optimism we need to bring us together and make every American proud to be an American. Barack Obama has inspired a new generation and reinvigorated our democracy."
He called for Hillary Clinton to agree to run as Obama's vice presidential candidate.

Neal, a financial adviser from Chapel Hill, is one of the Democrats running for U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Dole's seat. (more…)
