"Bruce Springsteen unveiled a new song during his appearance at a Barack Obama rally on Thursday (October 18). The singer performed the official Obama campaign song &amp;#039;Forward&amp;#039; while speaking on behalf of the US president at two special events in Parma, Ohio and Ames, Iowa.      Springsteen led the audience in a call-and-response, singing humorous lyrics about the accomplishments from Obama&amp;#039;s first term of office. The legendary musician - who was introduced by ex-US president Bill Clinton in Parma - told those in attendance that Obama represents the best future for the US. &amp;quot;For 30 years, I&amp;#039;ve been writing about the divide between the American dream and the American reality,&amp;quot; Springsteen said in Parma. &amp;quot;Our vote is the one principal way we get to determine that distance.&amp;quot;  Springsteen initially explained his support for Obama in an open letter posted on his official website earlier this week. He wrote: &amp;quot;President Obama is our best choice because he has a vision of the United States as a place where we are all in this together. We&amp;#039;re still living through very hard times but justice, equality and real freedom are not always a tide rushing in. &amp;quot;They are more often a slow march, inch by inch, day after long day. I believe President Obama feels these days in his bones and has the strength to live them with us and to lead us to a country\u00E2\u20AC\u00A6 where no one crowds you and no one goes it alone.&amp;quot; Springsteen previously endorsed Obama during the politician&amp;#039;s first election battle against senator John McCain in 2008. The US presidential election is held on November 6.
