Obama for Change

Yes, Barack Obama is winning hearts all over the United States. He just won me over.
Though politics is not really my area of interest, but reading this article (one of the first commentaries on Obama's speech I've come across), one can't help but feel great about this guy.

He's matter-of-fact and willing to speak out about what we may be doing wrong - and that makes him just the change the US needs.
I'm waiting to come across other speeches of Obama.

I do hope the US can go through elections next year without skin-colour or hardened political allegiances coming into play. The country should consider the qualities of the President they bring in -after all, it impacts not just the United States, but the world at large.

And so I join the chorus: "Obama for Change"

PS: No, I'm not affiliated in any way to Obama's campaign. Thanks for asking.
