Iran's President is up for re-election two weeks from today, and the world is waiting for possible changes in nuclear policy. Iranian voters have other concerns and Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is addressing them.

His opponents accuse him of bribing the poor. Borzou Daragahi, Middle East correspondent for the Los Angeles Times, is in Tehran to cover the elections.
