Barack Obama is a very fine presidential specimen. He is highly intelligent, intuitive, eloquent, charismatic and inspirational. He has methodically crafted himself, guided by great vision and inner strength into a very successful family man and influential politician. In a word, he is a great achiever
Contrast Obama to Hillary Clinton and the difference is quite remarkable. Hillary simply doesn't posses the endearing qualities of Obama. Much has been made of experience but this claim is empty considering that Hillary was no VP nor did she hold any political position in the White house. She flunked the only meaningful healthcare assignment that Bill gave her. She voted for the war in Iraq, and then supported the erroneous declaration of the revolutionary guard of Iran as terrorist. Would you hire Hillary as the CEO of your organization if your money and life depended on it? The obvious answer is no. So, why should she be president of the United States? Hillary is a political vine, no host no height. Where would she be without Bill Clinton?
Obama and Hillary should be judged by their performance in this campaign. Hillary started on third base, backed by an ex president and the full weight of special interest groups and their media. Obama started at first base and is now on third base while Hillary sweats. Obama has clearly demonstrated superior organization, management and political skills. What better credentials can there be to qualify for the job of being president.
About this matter of experience, no democrat should be elected to the White House simply because they have the experience of beating off miserable republicans in personal wars. The country has no need for such divisive encounters. This is the time for real change and Barack Obama is the real deal. A vote for Hillary will be the third coming of George W Bush. No, please no. Some baffled Brits once wondered how 53 million Americans can be so dumb. Pretty hard to explain but it will be a repeat performance if Democrats nominate Hillary.
