Obama The Great

Okay, so he is not president; yet. I might not be American but I live in Canada and ultimately am equally effected by the President of the United States as I am over the Prime Minister, by the way who is terrible enough on his own accord. Could you imagine the disarray North America would fall into if McCain & Harper were the two conservative heads. Anyone directly involved in oil would benefit, but everyone else would suffer. 


The thing about Obama is that he actually cares. Do you really want someone running your country who doesn't care about you? About your country and what is really best for both it, and you? Or do you want someone who is going to do something, inspire positive change. Something American society in general really requires. Why is so much money, more now then ever, being pumped into a war against innocent people? A war on terror, what does that even mean? 

Wikipedia defines terror as something that provides "an overwhelming sense of imminent danger." That's it. That is the definition. America has a war on an overwhelming sense of imminent danger? 

Does that mean America is at war with global warming? or cancer? or better yet themselves? September 11th was a terrible and devastating tragedy, do not get me wrong - but that was years ago. Last time I checked, years did not translate as imminent. 

This is something Obama knows. He wants to change that, and re-focus on America. 

Palin has been quoted as saying she plans (and I say she, because I truly believe she has plans of becoming president herself, not vice president) to continue the war, increase the efforts and even that the american economy is better then ever - right before that big stock market drop. McCain gave this woman power as a publicity stunt, when really only a complete idiot would give someone as power hungry as Palin that sort of power and influence. Obama could have easily chosen Hilary as his VP if he had wanted to play that card, but he didn't - he chose someone he actually and truly thought could do the job. 

... So really, who do you want running your country? Just think about it, meditate on it even - and then vote in six days.
