President Obama's experience as a Community Organizer was invaluable in bringing Democrats together from all walks of life, all ages, and in all states. I mean, your dude Jesus was just a carpenter, and look what He was able to accomplish. President Obama makes excellent use of the internet and relies on his Blackberry so much that Secret Service had one especially designed for his use. Yes, he has the right stuff.
Even if the Republican party could effectively distance themselves from Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Wolfowicz, and the failed policies of Reagan/Bush, Bush/Quayle, and our previous administration, the voters know that these people were WRONG for American ideals and WRONG for our economy. I wasn't for Obama at first, because I wanted Hillary in office---she'd make a fine President and has the intellect and experience, plus the added bonus of an ex-President for her husband---a husband who is to this day beloved despite his lapse---a husband who lifted us out of the recession from the savings and loan collapse, paid down the deficit by more than $360 billion, and left office with a $271 surplus. After really listening to Barack Obama's words, though, and studying his demeanor, I grew to realize this is the man God wants for our nation...a charismatic, brilliant, eloquent, caring young "mutt" of a man with a dream for America and its people...and I realized how very hungry this nation has been for a HERO. Many of us are afraid to believe or trust...we've been disappointed SO MANY TIMES...I'm telling you all that I honestly believe this young man with a dream has the capacity for GREATNESS in him, and I wanted to be a part of the historical event that brought him and his family to our White House. Yes, he would have been elected. Our nation was ready after the strange (almost antichrist) evils of the previous administration...there was a national cry for someone we can believe in, and I believe this young man heard the cry and was destined to be the one to heal our wounds, return our nation to true strength and prosperity, and bring peace to the world. Try to hear his words and study his actions with an open mind. Don't let lobbyist or extremist propaganda rule your opinions...and give the man a chance.
Have faith.
