Young voters should take another look at Obama
A good read/ Michael ends it with:The foreign policy experts call this "realism." I call it stasist. It leaves America standing not for hope and change, but for the status quo and despair. I am sure that you find it inspiring that America elected its first black president (I do, too). And I am sure you appreciate Obamas openness to alternative lifestyles, although you may have noticed that he, like George W. Bush and unlike Dick Cheney, opposes same-sex marriage. The larger point is this: You want policies that will enable you to choose your future. Obama backs policies that would let centralized authorities choose much of your future for you. Is this the hope and change you want? Your friend and admirer, Michael Barone Posted by: eltoroverde 2009-08-19 |
