Last night
I’ve written much about Obama, and have spoken to my friends a great deal about this transformative leader. I simply want to repeat something I’ve stressed before – Obama’s appeal to me is his pragmatism, his intellectual curiosity, his steadiness, and his empathy. For those on the left; do not think that America will no longer engage in war, or that they will have single payer healthcare. For those on the right; do not fear Obama. I promise you that he will be a friend, not a foe.
But just to pat myself on the back, here’s a quote from my blog that I wrote on March 16, 2008:
“I predicted almost a year ago that Obama would win the primary on the premise that America after 8 years of the worst presidency in its history was ready for true change and that Obama was quite frankly one of the most gifted politicians since JFK. I was right. Today I will predict that Obama will win the White House in the manner that Reagan did…huge.” - YUP!
