Obama’s Overplay
Well I would admit that Barak Obama looks “fresh”. By saying “fresh” I mean he looks confident and obviously has better campaign management than the previous Democratic frontrunners John Kerry and Al Gor.
Sure I don’t undestand “Change” the way Obama preach it. I don’t see it in his policies. Is it all about the war in Iraq? If “yes” I would say that there is someone who much better understands challenges in Iraq, Middle East, as well as the U.S. foreign policy. An this “someone” is John McCain! He projected that situation in Iraq is going to get better and he did many things to achieve this.
So if someone is proven reformer, if someone can say “Change” this is McCain.
When I think of “change” I would like to hear something specific. And when it comes to world affairs John McCain delivered very strong and clear message. He said that the G8 should again become “a club of leading market democracies. It should include Brazil and India but exclude Russia. Today, we see in Russia diminishing political freedoms, a leadership dominated by a clique of former intelligence officers, efforts to bully democratic neighbors, such as Georgia, and attempts to manipulate Europe’s dependence on Russian oil and gas”.
On the other side “Change” sometimes means “a lose of decency”. In other words it can be a copy of the presidential seal with Barak Obama’s web address on it.
We can look at the new Obama seal different ways. Someone might say “It is cool”, “Other migh say it is poor copy of the original”. Anyone might note that Obama’s campaign managers know how to keep attention on him. I would say that a prospective president should behave as a leader and to show more decency at least when uses the national symbols.
I don’t want to publish “fake” seals on my blog so please go to see it in NYTimes.
