The Time for Change is now!

That old saying, “you’d better be careful what you say or it may come back to haunt you?” Well, McCain’s latest character attacks via his running mate Palin seem to exhibit that to the fullest. In April he stated that he was “… making it very clear, as I have a couple of times in the past, that there’s no place for that kind of campaigning, and the American people don’t want it.” Well, what changed between then and now? Obviously the major change is the fact that he is falling behind in the polls. He and his running mate are so desperate right now that they are going to the old school tactics. They too like Bush in 2004 are succumbing to character assassination – as you can see this ticket is just a repeat of Bush and for claiming to be different they just went to prove yet again how similar they are to Bush. Imagine the sense of déjà vu if they get elected?  Na, its time for change and Obama is that change. I have one question for you all – had he been a white candidate would you think we’d be sitting here even contemplating if there was any chance he wouldn’t win?  Seriously, in this day and age with such diversity it’s amazing we are still having these discussions based on color. I truly hope with all my heart that Obama wins and that he paves the way for other minorities to follow suit.  America is a nation blessed with diversity and its time for some of the diversity to make it to the nation’s highest position.
