He was my first presidential vote. Looking back, I can't really say it was a bad one.

Me too.

What's more, I went to see him speak on the UW Madison campus. (I wasn't a student there, but I was visiting a friend who was.) He spoke outside on the steps of some campus building. We were right up front, up against the barricade. I chatted with the Secret Service agent on the other side while waiting for Anderson to speak.
