Vote For Obama
This coming November, the United States is faced with a clear choice, between more of the same old politics or change. McCain has tried to steal Obama’s catch-phrase of “change”, but come on, let’s get serious. What does a 72-year old know about change? John McCain has been a US Senator for over 25-years and during that time, our country has stuck it’s heals in the sand and fought change tooth and nail.
I was a child when John Kennedy was first elected president, but I can still recall the excitement that hung in the air like smoke on the water. The United States fully rebounded from the Second World War and our stature as a world leader was confirmed. By electing a young and charismatic president, we sent a strong signal to the world that our country was ready to move into the future brimming with confidence and we were electing a young, new leader to get us there. In his short tenure as president, John Kennedy inspired a nation of young people to look beyond their won self interests and to reach for their full potential by striving to serve the world’s greater good. John Kennedy was a rare and visionary leader and because of that, he posed a threat to the old guard. True leaders are far and few between. Leaders cannot be created or promoted. Leadership cannot be taught or learned. Real leadership come from the soul. Leadership is derived out of an ingrained sense of purpose and servitude. There is no substitute for leadership.
Our form of government is the world’s greatest not because our leaders created it, but because it has created leaders. Democracy is the best form of government because it fosters an atmosphere of leadership development by creating the environment and the conditions that allows for men and women to strive to reach for their full potential.
