Obama '08

So this coming election, I will be voting for BO (Barrack Obama). I have to admit, I was very skeptical when Sen. Obama was making his run for the White house, and for history to become the very first African-American President of the United States. Then, I was a Hilary supporter, because I was hoping for the next 4 years to be just exactly like how it was when President Bill Clinton was in office. Now, since the DNC (Democratic National Convention) I was impressed by Sen. Obama's speach, because it touched on the issues that I personally wanted to hear as working middle-class American.

During these past 8 years with President Bush's administration, there has been rising crime, poverty and unemployment, all which have been recorded to be an all-time high. With that said, nothing much has been done for working middle-class Americans these past 8 years, we've been taxed, and the richer have been receiving tax cuts. It's our right to stand up as Americans to end this now. We can no longer stand in the dark, and watch this country be torn apart from the inside, just because we're afraid to take a stand and do what's right. We have a depleting educational system, our teachers are not being paid the salaries they deserve to educate our children. Our health care system is not in good shape either, and something has to be done about it NOW.
