Here I am baby

Less than 5 days to go as the race for President of the USA comes to an end. Since the beginning both sides have made an effort to show their true colors. I feel only one side has prevailed and actually come through with a truthful message and an actually desire to CHANGE America.

Now I know I am a democrat and this blog will ooze democratic propaganda for the next couple of posts to come, but its true.

This weekends Sunday Times Magazine added to the "great light" which has been cast over the Republican Party's vice-presidential nominee, Governor Sarah"Barracuda"Palin.

Since her nomination in August, the media has pounced on Palin's life, trying to get a real glimpse of the real Alaskan Governor.

I'd have to say for a person who has a degree in communications/journalism and who has worked within the media before shes not too great on camera.

In an interview with Katie Couric she was questioned about her experience with foreign policy and miserably concluded she didn't know what she was talking about. If she feels she's an expert on foreign policy then I'd love to apply for a position within the United Nations as a European expert just for living in England.

If the Republicans were to win the election November 4th and John McCain were to suffer a heart attack during all the celebration (God forbid) Sarah Palin would be our new Commander and Chief.

Throughout the entire campaign, from the beginning, even during the Democratic and Republican primaries Senator Barack Obama has worn his heart on his sleeve.

Despite all the negative media focus, supporters of the Republican party yelling "Kill him" at their rallies and the obvious race issue that has somewhat blinded some from what Obama stands for which is America; Obama continues to hold his head up high through all that has happened around him.

This trait reminds me of the American National Anthem:

"What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming.
Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming.
And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there."

After the speech Obama's speech in Pennsylvania came to a close a day ago, one of Stevie Wonder's songs captured Obama's dedication and persistence since he made the decision to run for President: Signed, Sealed, Delivered, I'm Yours. Nothing more, nothing less.
