We Get the President We Deserve

but we need barack obama.

it's all out there in the blog world. school kids, informed by their parents, are talking about how obama is muslim (muslims, followers of the islamic faith, are in no way terrorists and it's despicable the way islam has been distorted. much of this can be blamed on bush. however obama is not muslim) and rush limbaugh, who is as far as i can tell a minor distraction (how many listeners does he really have?), convinced some of his listeners to vote for clinton, and many ohioans just couldn't vote for a black man.

it's headspinning the amount of ignorance and fear that is out there.

i suppose now obama's white supporters have some insight on just what it means to be a "minority."

it means you have to work extra hard to excel. that's what the obama camp needs to do. it needs to go above and beyond. not that it hasn't already. i know plenty of people who've worked their tails off. but in addition to the message of change, the obama camp has to educate people along the way, while fending off the kitchen sink.

obama is not only the superior candidate in judgement and leadership, he's what this country needs in order to become more worldly.

but we will get the president we deserve. we got bush because we were too fearful. perhaps we are ready for change. but how much change?

do we want some change? or do we want an overhaul and new thinking? for those who are looking for change, clinton is a good candidate. she’ll be a contrast to bush. but for those who are looking for meaningful change that reeks of brand new--a new direction, a new mindset, enlightened thinking, obama is the best candidate.

so just how change tolerant are we?
it's on to mississippi march 11, where clinton's "momentum" will be halted, and wyoming's caucus march 8.
