Barak Obama’s fantastic lead against Hillary Clinton for the Democratic Party nomination shows the American peoples desire for a radical political change in the Country. The People are tired of the policies carried out by the Bush administration. Bush and the Republican Party policies have failed to lead America towards a progressive leadership.
Bush is a war monger and his force lies in, to what extent he could use force and aggression to make countries accept his policies. Under Republicans America has failed to present itself as an acceptable world leader. In the 21st century the world needs a different leadership to what America proposes under its hackneyed conservative thinking.
The world is tired of war, and intolerance. World needs a leadership that is modern, peaceful, understanding, and generous. If America is to continue its role of a world leader, it has to change its narrow self interest, and step in as a leader who is prepared to help and cooperate with those countries that need help. The development of the poor countries will help the developed countries. Most of the problems that the developed countries are faced with today such as immigration , and unemployment could be overcome by adopting policies to develop the poor countries. The developed countries seek to develop further their economy for their benefit without cooperating with the rest of the world.
There was a time when excess consumer produce was dumped in the high seas to maintain high prices. This inhuman policies should be stopped if they are being continued to-day. The excess production could be sent as aid or sold at a reasonably low prices to poor countries, suffering from lack of food due to inability to produce consumer goods due to water shortage.
In this 21st century the rich countries should be prepared to share their wealth with the developing countries instead of seeking financial benefit for their luxurious living conditions. This the Bush administration ignored, trying to be a super power using high technology for military dominance in the world.
America as a world leader should be able to solve political and economic problems of the rest of the world not by displaying its militaristic power, but by adopting a more acceptable relationship with the other countries, cooperating with them and engaging with them in a constructive dialogue in a friendly atmosphere reverting from its attitude of a war lord dictating terms to developing countries.
This is the reason why Americans should select a young and a forceful leadership. Barack Obama would be an ideal American President in the present world where indiscipline, intolerance, and terror rein. Obama is new and presents a neutral leadership the world would accept. Such a leadership will herald in a new world order of peace and understanding.
Hillary Clinton too has that ability to come down to the level of the ordinary people, and understand their problems. That would qualify her for leadership, as both America and the world need a leader who listens, and not one who dictates, without listening. In both Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton the Americans have a good choice which ever way they wish to make a final decision at the Democratic Convention. Any one of them is quite capable of bringing back to America its lost popularity in the world.
Obama or Clinton, either one is certainly far better than a weary old soldier to be the next President of U.S..A.
