Obama for Change, or Mc Cain to Stagnate

America has to go into the future. I t had been lagging far too long in the past when USA was the uncontested leader of the World. With that mentality USA has not contributed to progress. The rich, the poor, the black, the brown, the yellow, and the white, make up the vast humanity of the world. USA should wake up to this reality , and go forward taking every one towards progress. There is the good, the bad , and the evil. We should rather not avoid the bad and the evil without making an effort to change the bad, to the better, and the evil to change its evil ways.

The war should be avoided, in exchange for peace and understanding. Dialogue should proceed aggression. McCain does not stand for progress. He will keep America and the world stagnating where they are. He has nothing new to propose. His ideas are hackneyed and out dated as much as his words are. He cannot change neither America, nor the world.

Americans should therefore, vote for some one who could change things to the better. Barrack Obama, is a new generation leader. He will surely change the hackneyed American mental make up. He speak new words , a new language. He acts differently and thinks differently . It is he who will bring progress to America and the world.

McCain thinks he has experience. What experience has he ? It is true that he was a war hero. He was held a prisoner by the Vietcong. He may not have betrayed state secrets, and USA war strategies to his captors to escape unhurt from them. He may have been in the Senate longer than Barrack Obama. Is that the experience he has, which makes him a better candidate ?

Barack Obama is learned. He is more intelligent to grasp world problems, and propose solutions. He is quick to understand, he could evaluate people, nations and their problems from an intellectual level. His mind is not stilted by a passion for a disciplined military sort of solutions.

Obama is a man of the people. He is philosophical, and understands human nature, probably much better than McCain.

He will be at home among the blacks, the browns, the yellows and the white. He will not turn away from the rich, the poor, the good and the evil. He is young. He is different. He proposes change, which is possible . He proposes peace, which is possible. He proposes dialogue against aggression, which is also possible.

What has Mc Cain proposed ? Nothing new. He has become an expert critic of what ever Barrack Obama proposes, without proposing any thing different, any thing new. Is American Presidential Elections an assertion of the White domination over the Black ? That is outmoded and depressively non-progressive.

It is not God that proposes change. It is man’s duty to use God given intelligence to change. If they chose to remain where they are, they will vote McCain.

If they want to change, for peace, and live in harmony with the rest of the world they will choose Barrack Obama.

Sarah Palin anf John McCain fall into lowest level ......

John McCain and Sarah Palin have unfortunately brought the Presidential election of America to the lowest level. They are opening the closet doors, and even toilets to find material to attack Barack Obama even for his undigested meals. This is quite in contravention to respectable political rivalry expected from the Civilized Society .

This “filth” dug up to throw at Barack Obama goes well with some of the Republican supporters as it was seen in one or two You Tubes, where the Republican Supporters were ridiculing the Democratic Presidential Candidate for his name, his association with persons, and his ancestors, calling him a terrorists. What low tactics ! It was sickening an most scandalous.

Sarah Palin seemed to take a lively interest in arousing the crowds insulting the Democratic Presidential Candidate. It is not political ethics to disrespectfully ridicule the opposition candidate. He should be respected as much as one expects oneself to be respected. After all Barack Obama is the Presidential Candidate of USA, there should be decorum and respect towards the person who may be the elected President. In the Presidential Elections criticism of the opponent should be very well thought out without going down to personal level.

In that respect we take our hats off to Democratic Party Candidates- both Barack Obama and Joe Biden carry on a responsible, clean, and prober elction campaign without falling in to the trap of falling into the lowest level into which the Republican Candidates have fallen in their campaign.

A candidate may either win the elections or loose it, but they are still on the election campaign. Therefore, they should maintain the high standard of political respectability expected in a Presidential election. They may criticise the political experience, the political programmes suggested by the candidates, their ability to convince the public on their projects. They may be critical of the qualifications, past experience in their respective professions. But it would unbecoming of one candidate to speak about the opponents name, invent belief in religions to which he does not adhere.

A candidate should not be accused of the company he had kept in the past, under estimating his strength of character not to have been influenced by the company he had kept. The people constantly change, learning from life’s experiences. A persons engagement in activities with various individual does not necessarily sully once character. One should be intelligent enough to measure and evaluate a person from what he is now, not casting aspersions because of his links in the past.

“All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players;
They have their exits and their entrances;
And one man in his time plays many parts, his acts being seven ages”


Barack Obama is a pacifist, a humanitarian, a philosopher and a man of the world.
He is worth many Palins and McCains. Obama should not be measured from the company he kept yesterday, but from what his mind has been moulded. For the Mahatma Gandhi Service day on the 2 October,2008, he issued a message which contained the follwong two paragraphs, which gives an insight into where his mental strength comes from:

"....Gandhi's significance is universal. Countless people around the world have been touched by his spirit and example - his victory in turn inspired a generation of young Americans to peacefully wipe out a system of overt oppression that had endured for a century, and more recently led to velvet revolutions in Eastern Europe and extinguished apartheid in South Africa. Nelson Mandela, the Dalai Lama and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., spoke of their great debt to Gandhi. His portrait hangs in my office to remind me that real change will not come from Washington - it will come when the people, united, bring it to Washington.

This is a pivotal election. This is our time for change. For far too long, we've watched as ordinary Americans work harder and harder for less and less. We've watched our standing in the world erode as we continue to lose American lives in a war that should've never been authorized and never been waged. I need you to stand up and work for change. Let us all rededicate ourselves, every day from now until November 4th, and beyond, to living Gandhi's call to be the change we wish to see in the world."

Joe Biden was a colossus compared to Sarah Palin

Who said Sarah Palin did better than Biden ? No body did in fact, every one was watching Sarah Palin. She did not come any where close to Joe Biden. Joe Biden is a colossus compared to school girlish Palin.

Sarah Palin did not say much on her own, much of what she said seemed to have been prepared. She was playing to win the spectators with her sly smiles, winks and coy, shy demeanor . She could not explain many questions on taxes and state accountability with any expertise.

She had no factn enough experience to go on to answer National questions. Alaska being a small place compared to the rest of America, her experience as governor is no more than being a Chairman of a Sports club. It is perhaps the wrong thing to say, but Americans are surely not that short of intelligence to understand that she is a wrong choice, for such position as the Vice President to a 72 year old Presidential candidate. The Vice President should be complementary to the President. She should fill the space that the President is not competent enough to fill.

Joe Biden, was brilliant in the exposition of detailed financial intricacies of Taxes, and what should be retained and what should be left out to save on the budget. His exposition of issues were more technical and therefore perhaps outside the ordinary spectators competence to understand. Therefore, the coy womanly expressions served with her pleasant voice, and engaging smiles may have attracted the viewer. But American Presidential Elections is not just a stage show. Being the Vice President is a serious matter . The Americans are not electing a President for America, but the whole world is looking forward to this election. Therefore, the American people have a responsibility to take a serious view of their choice of a President. The Vice President is only a part of the Presidential responsibility.

Barack Obama, has made a wise selection in the choice of his Vice President. Joe Biden has the personality, ability to explain intricate financial matters to the people, and experience in the Senate being Chairman of several committees.

Joe Biden is undoubtedly the more competent Vice President, and with Barack Obamas two of them will be the best combination for the American Presidential election.

America deserves something better

Many are looking forward , to the Sarah Palin-Joe Biden debate. Thought there is not much to be expected, it would be an occasion, nevertheless, to watch McCain's prized catch in action.

They talk of change and with Sarah Palin what a change it is going to be. One may perhaps say that after eight years of Bush , any change is better than nothing. But for whatever change America deserves better than a Palin nor a McCain for that matter.

Palin’s World of Angels, and Miracles is perhaps good for Alaska, but is it good enough for larger America and the world outside waiting for a real change in the American Administration. McCain cannot boast much on personal level with a woman dumped for being on a wheel chair, and a history of chasing beauties….

Coming back to the great debate, I am sure she will swear by the god that, if there is going to be a war any where else, after Iraq and Afghanistan it would be the Gods will and one can do nothing about it.

Women according to her have no personal choices other than what the god has decided for them. She is very good at handling guns having practiced it as a sport in Alaska. Therefore, she may also be an expert to advice on modern warfare using more sophisticated arms and artillery. There is going to be much for the world to expect from her pronouncements about how to deal with Iran, Russia and North Korea.

Joe Biden is known for his “gaffs”, but though he is not great with his words he is a genius with figures . With what the Bush Administration had done with the American finances, we really need a man like Joe Biden to shake things up and put some order into the world’ finances.

Barack Obama cannot be pushed over because the Republicans say he has no experience. But surprisingly Obama shows the ability to grasp a problem, and thinking over it to make an intelligent decision. He is young, intelligent and has much youthful force to tackle a problem, as much as any experienced politician. He is definitely more experienced than McCain in intellectual political debate, and decision making. McCain had been an army hero, therefore experienced in military affairs. We have had enough of military affairs under Bush not to have any more with McCain if elected for his war experience.

America needs an intellectual leader even to use the army for the betterment of the world for and improve human relations than, an army man who would think that the army is the weapon that has to be used to dominate the world making America some sort of a “Robocop”.

Barack Obama, has the world appeal, that inspires trust and friendship, which America lacked in its role as the world leader.
