Obama accused the Bush administration of treating the "Constitution as a nuisance rather than as the foundation of our liberty" and told the cheering crowd, "This is our moment! This is our moment!"
Obama is to join the Goo Goo Dolls at a concert in Los Angeles after campaigning this weekend with entertainment mogul Oprah Winfrey in Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina.
