Barack has made such an example of leader through this trying primary season and would be a great President. Obama's historical position would help solidify a huge part of a broken Amerika. It would raise discussions that our country has failed to make or follow through with. His LACK of experience might be just what our country
needs. Sometimes knowing all of the rules can stifle creativity and growth...
If we can get a democrat and keep the houses blue for at least one full term or six more years our country has a chance to turn itself around a bit. The reds and their factions have turned this country so far back...
As a country that should be setting global examples of how to create a great society, at this point globally, we have failed our students. We need to wake up and realize that the government is a reflection of our society and what we do there, and accomplish there has a direct correlation to us as a whole. When the government is in deep debt due to a war or the like, we find that the citizens are not saving and being told to spend and they also go further into debt as well. With spending and foreclosures at astronomical highs it is a wakeup call. Our retiring community, in
the latter part of the boomer generation, little to hold on with as far as retirement or planning. It is NOT the government's responsibility to make sure all is ok for everyone when they retire, but helping people with their lives is. A government is to set examples of how our society is to live and govern itself. Yet, so many of our politicians are greedy, selfish, criminal, murdering, philandering, self centrist, egomaniacs it is difficult to change it from the inside out. When we have 0 accountability at the top, this is one of the key points that needs change. Bush and his crew should be sent to prison for what they have done in countries around the world, and for the lies and conspiracies they promulgated to their own people.
When we openly and globally discuss fairness and equality and we are awaken to the sites of Abu Grab, Guantanamo Bay and the Vet hospitals, etc. we find that talking through ones ass is an accepted practice and it is okay to do so. This does not set good examples for our society and its children. Nor does is set a good example for the world to trust us and work together to make this small planet a whole system that can work together for the betterment of the human species and our environment.
Barack would be a great wake up call and I feel his energy would make for a new America. Obama is willing and creative enough to take the risks necessary to turn
this country into a new direction and make the negators of those ideals accountable.

In the days of old...
when knights were bold, and elections were not yet invented. They would sit in the round, then discuss what went down and later tell everyone what had happened. (This would be after there became a general consensus as to what they wanted everyone to know as to what had happened. How things never change.)
We have the opportunity to create a major change in our world with this upcoming elections. I have tried for so long to leave politics out of this blog, but there comes a time to step up and stand for what one believes in.
There are currently three major competitors for the position to be filled in the White House. This is a job search for the best possible person for the job of running the largest corporation in the world. We need someone who has a level head and is not hot under the collar, just in case some radical group has issues and pisses off the President. We need someone who is capable of handling the hours as the world and its timelines tend to keep the person up at all odd hours for years at a time. We need someone who is respected for their previous experience and can work across political party lines. We need someone who is capable of thinking outside the current situation so as to rectify some major political and economical issues at hand. We need someone who is confident in their economic policy ideas. We need someone who is capable of seeing the future.
Well, enough of that, this would put McCain out. He is 72 years old, making him the oldest elected President ever. At this time, most people are slowing down a bit. They can get tired more often, remember Reagan sleeping on camera? Someone with whom Bush supports certainly now has an uphill battle to face. That is unless God told him to back McCain...McCain has stated publicly that he is not that savvy in economic issues. He has stated that he is much in line with a more of the same approach...
This brings us to Clinton and Obama. Both of these people have the years and stamina to make this job. Both of them have shown their means of working across party lines and not disenfranchising themselves through outbursts and opinionated ideas over their tenures. Both of them have shown the public that their ideas have legs and come from a place of thinking outside the current conditions and finding means to rectify today's political situations. They have stated publicly that they have ideas on the economy and were not afraid to tackle them. They have shown through their Senate backgrounds of voting for healthcare issues are concerns and timely. Obama has shown us that he has never been for the Iraq war and continues to fight for the illegal and unjustified means that the current administration has handled things. Hillary has shown us, through her work in Senate committees that she can handle herself with major issues and deal with others outside of our borders in rational and open discussion forum ways and means. They both have shown their dedication and desire to come to the table representing the United States to come up with new ideas and actions to help stop global warming and carbon emissions.
We need change, we need a new outlook and party to think in real terms for real issues. We need someone who knows what the people are thinking and feeling in order to rationally think in real terms for solutions to everyday issues.
I am going out on a limb and presenting a scenario for today's ticket. If we have Clinton/Obama, I believe that this would help us move forward in to a new era of politics. Then in eight years, Obama will be in a perfect position to take on the role as head of state. If we could bring sixteen years of new ideas to the table with a democratic house and senate, we might be able to salvage all of the damage that has been done to us over the past 7 1/2 years. We need a major change, not only for us but in order to salvage the world and so many of its problems to which the world is searching for leadership and answers and have found NONE with our administration over the past 7 1/2 years. Our debt has grown to the stratosphere from a surplus when this administration took office. Our budgets continue to remain unbalanced. Our respect held by others in the world has vanished.
It is time for a major wake up call, at 3 AM to someone who can handle the job and cares about what they are doing to others.
