Nice quote
Regardless of your political beliefs, you cannot tell me the speech below is not inspiring, or at least this part of it (1:06 in video): “We are the ones we’ve been waiting for…We are the change that we seek.” Sure, it’s not original, or a new concept, but regardless of who says it, but it could be the most true thing I’ve heard spoken during this election season.
Anyway, this isn’t about the election. I voted for Obama, but I’d be perfectly happy with Clinton, McCain or Obama.
For the record, I re-did this post 3 times in the last 20 minutes. First it seemed too anti-american for most of your all’s taste. Next, I got too political. But, that said, if you’d like to know what’s really going through my head on those 2 fronts, email me .

Certainly, no one denies that Mr. Obama is an incredible speaker. This video is no different. I am inspired by his powerful words, he definitely knows how to energize a group of people.
Unfortunately, his great and inspiring words tell me nothing about what believes, where he specifically stands on key issues, and what he will specifically do as president.
I agree. that doesn’t tell us much about him.
But yeah, the video was not intended to be an endorsement for Obama. I’m still subject to change my mind on it.
But it was a more positive way to show what I would like to feel about our country, rather than the negative blog post that was intended, which basically said how disgusted and ashamed I am to be an American, but recognizing that there isn’t much of a better choice. However, not having a better choice, shouldn’t make that the okay standard and everyone content with our nations past and present.
Had I posted some of the things I wrote, I would most certainly be lined up for waterboarding tomorrow :-)
Problem is, all the candidates are positive and all-inspiring, making themselves out to be the be biggest patriot. But it is all lip service to get elected.
I don’t trust any politician. They are all corrupt. It’s a sad fact.
