BUTTE - For one Montanan who is still years from even casting a ballot, the candidates' visit to Butte meant a dream come true. Butte 5th grader Seth Jacksha says though he may be young, but he considers himself a long-time Obama fan.

This weekend, he says he got to meet his hero thanks to State Senator Steve Gallus of Butte who gave up his ticket so that the little boy could meet Obama.

"Well why I like him is because I think he stands for change and that he can make our country really great," Jaksha said. Seth was able to get his copy of Obama's book "Audacity of Hope" signed Saturday night.
