I heard his speech last night and it brought thoughts to my mind. I often wondered how a inexperienced politician has gone this far to be the nominee of the Democratic party and some what this was answered.
I think about history and that of great orators who made crowds energized. I think of because of this Winston Churchill, Abraham Lincoln and Martin Luther King. These men had great ideas and changed the world.
Then I think about the Reverend Jim Jones, Adolph Hitler and many others that as being great speakers brought down countries and people to their death because they had the ability to convince many. Even though their ideas and intentions where wrong, because of great speeches they drew the masses to follow to their demise. My hope is America will not fall as these have.
I look into what Obama is for what ideas he has to make a great nation that he wishes to lead. I hear him talk of change and unity. I hear not one idea of how to change positively that tried before has failed miserably. I hear condescension and arrogance of which will not unify.
I look at the history of Senator Obama and his record in voting. Most examples of what he sides with have proven to be a failure historically. This is true socialism of which is a flawed ideology. This is not changing just recycled inadequacy. The people of our great nation need to stand up and reject these or we are destined to fail.
In address to his opponent Senator McCain of which Obama spoke. I agree with his assessment made in his speech. If you stand for everything, you stand for nothing. Great leaders stand principled as a rock and the tide will not wash them out like the sand you are standing on. If you want to lead our nation to greatness then you must stand on the principles that made us great. You must change your direction and stop the nonsense of trying to get along, wavering belief and collusion. No one respects you for this stand especially the ones on the other side of the isle as you see in Obamas speech.
My optimism is someone will stand up and say enough is enough. This one will become a great leader and not change but restore what has worked proven by history. At this time that person is not availed.
