You know i'm beginning to think we give too much power to the government, the president, and the congress. I mean we get nervous when a person has flaws or is not perfect or believes in something we all around dont. Actually when it comes down to it.. we the people are the power. We make the decisions who leads us, and if we learn how to use that power... i do believe we can bring America back to prospering place to live. Right now we are struggling, but we are still the land of the free we must get back into that frame of mind.
I must admit I whole heartedly knew who I would vote for from the beginning. I mean to be honest, back in 2004 when everybody was speculating that Clinton might run for the first woman president I was like yes.. I'm voting for her. Well after blogging and hearing everyone's comments I am now at the point that I'm just confused. No not about who I am voting for but how in the hell anyone knows who they are going to vote for. As far as I see it.. America is divided. McCain is like another Bush in office and we know we dont want to go down that road again. Obama, who I dont know anything about is suppose to be tied to Islam.. oh geez! And Clinton is suppose to be a communist.
So here is all the scandel surrounding our presidential nominees. I think it is just ridiculous because none of them can do anything without us the people. We do the voting, we make the final call... Dont yall see it doesnt matter who gets into office because without our vote Mccain cant keep us in Iraq for 100 years, Obama cant stand with the Muslim and take over the world, and Clinton cant do whatever it is people are saying she is trying to do that could ruin us.
This entire charades of events surrounding the decision 08 is getting old. I am just ready for November to get the republicans out. I'm ready for jobs aplenty and minimum wage to come up. We are putting so much energy into deciding on a final democrat nominee that I just dont see the same amount of energy being put into the final decision. We need not stress what the nominees are speculated on being tied to. Our only concern is our safety and the return of our mighty patriotic heros across seas, the economy and healthcare... anything else is irrelevant.
Remember we are only in danger of who we vote for to be our nations spokesperson and leader. So in the end whose really running our country... we are yall. The president and everybody else speak for us and lead us but we, in a way. authorize them to do so. So if we dont like something or we dont agree on a idea, our vote is what makes it happen. We need to start remembering that. And then maybe we will be alot more prosperous.

I am a lover of the written word. I enjoy expressing myself with the beauty of imagination. I am a 23, african american female whose dream is to change our society. It is not racial discrimination that I intend to change.. but the prejudice that society has toward the generation X and the mistakes we make. We need change..
