| Comment about: The Importance of Barack Obama |
 |
| March 26, 2008 | | Obama wants utopia, don't we all? | As Senator Obama states, "But what we know -- what we have seen - is that America can change.
That is the true genius of this nation...It requires all Americans to
realize that your dreams do not have to come at the expense of my
dreams; that investing in the health, welfare, and education of black
and brown and white children will ultimately help all of America
prosper... I would not be running for President if I didn't believe
with all my heart that this is what the vast majority of Americans want
for this country. This union may never be perfect, but generation after
generation has shown that it can always be perfected."
I don't have to run for President to want all Americans to realize their dreams. The question isn't what do you want. The question is how are you going to do it? We all want it. Those who run for President need to define how they'll approach making it happen and not just that they want it to happen. And what does "it can always be perfected" mean anyway? Our union is not perfect, and it will never be perfect. "Always be perfected"? I don't get it.
Your comments that we're worn out with fear and worn out with negative leadership are absurd. We rest at night because of our relentless attack on terrorism. Our current leadership is far from the best this country has seen, but by God's grace, we've not experienced any more attacks on our soil.
My main reason for responding is not about Obama. I need to say that your political views are irrelevant and unimportant. But since you've decided to voice them, I feel compelled to eliminate your publications from my normal reading. Your views are clearly polar opposite from mine and unfortunately you've sabotaged your healthcare commentary by injecting your political criticisms. | |
