Obama Prevails

The Democratic primaries have been on everyone’s minds this year. This has been a very positive influence against voter apathy despite the mud slinging that seems to come hand in hand with campaigning. Who cares what someone’s priest says from the pulpit? Is he on the ticket? Also who cares what color or sex the delegate is? What is his or her stand on issues? Can they actually do what they claim they can? These are the things that should carry weight with voters. But, if debating whether or not a white woman had more credibility than a black man gets people involved, then who am I to nay say? As reported in The New York Times this particular race is over. Obama is the Democratic nominee for president of the United States of America. There, of course, is talk of a super-team of Obama and Clinton running for office together. I enjoyed the insight on the close of the primary race and the speculation on what might be in store for us in the near future. Anyone interested in following the progress of these two candidates will be interested in this article.
