The Democratic National Convention is being held in Denver and Carmelo Anthony will attend.

Anthony supports Barack Obama and hopes to meet him at the convention at Pepsi Center.

"I support him 100 percent," Anthony said. "I'm not a politician, I can tell you that right now. But I support Barack Obama. That's history, too, for it to go on at the place where I work. I'd love to be a part of that."
