I don't know enough to really know...

I don't know enough to really know, but what I do know, I know I like; still with me? I DO NOT follow politics, maybe a casual read or video watched during the week but that is about it. With the American election coming up, the hoopla etc is revving up more and more. The DNC was just held and the Republican one is to follow. I think it is incredible how much support is shown for both candidates. I watched in aw, as Obama, spoke to thousands of people that filled a football stadium. It's just incredible. Over the top spectacle, but incredible.

What he stands for and speaks about is what I agree with. He seems like a person that when asked would really listen, and understand. I think that is what America needs right now. Someone to take a step back, rub their eyes, then go to work. Not start fresh but start with a clear head and new ideas. I DO NOT follow politics. This is just my perception.

I have heard "America isn't ready for a black President". I think that is the problem right there. What does being black have to do with anything? That frustrates me so much. If I had the choice between two people, one that in my eyes was had beliefs, stances, goals to better the country I lived in, and one that was not. That's all I would care about.

Please wake up, please.
