Wow, that’s our soon to be president. And I have to say, I’m quite proud. Its not just because I’m a Democrat ( because truthfully I was contemplating the idea of Independent for a long time) and it’s not because I’m a woman, or a minority. It’s because he’s the best choice that we have. He’s charismatic, realistic, and eager to make a change, and I believe him. While my friends were here from the UK we sat and talked about their view of our country and the decisions that we have made. You know what each and everyone of them said? You Americans would be “CRAZY” to elect someone who falls anywhere near along the lines of Bush to lead us for the next four years.
They made me see the U.S. and our politics in a very realistic light. The world is a much smaller place today than in the years when our big bombs and missiles alloted us a sense security from foreign attacks. The WORLD hates Bush and the decisions that he has made in the last 8 years. To elect McCain, (someone who has backed Bush in over 95% of his decisions) would illustrate to the world that we are incompetent and incapable of being a world power or leader.
Ok, so do I feel that Obama is the “Savior” of the new millennium without any shortcomings. No, not at all. He’s human as well. But I do think he has the capabilities to deliver us out of the social, economic, and political mess that we are in.
