Don't Fear Change

We are 4 days away from one of the most critical elections in this country's recent history. As I write this blog post, I am not sure that America as a whole gets the true significance of these next few days. It is truly history making - one way or another.

My only hope is that people realize that there really is no other right choice except Barack Obama. My theory on both the Clintons and the Bushes, is that many Americans would accept mediocrity rather than the fear of change? Here are my questions to you on that:

* Why should we accept couple who's history has included adultery and lying in a court of law. Out of 300M Americans, is that really the best we can do?
* Why should we accept someone who so clearly politicizes issues and is not straightforward with the American public?
* Why should be accept someone who refuses to open up her records while First Lady (which she repeatedly uses as her source of experience) to the public?
* Why should we accept someone who has slandered their opponent using drug use, race, and even kindergarten aspirations?

This list, as you can tell, can go out for a quite a while. On the other hand, in the case for Obama, I ask these questions:

* Why are we afraid of someone who is fresh, new, engaging, honest, and intelligent?
* Why are we afraid of someone who has more personal and newspaper endorsements than any other candidate?
* Why are we afraid of someone has had the most donations and built up the largest grassroots organization in U.S. History? Can so many people be wrong?
* Why are we afraid of someone who vote with conviction and correctly on the Iraq War when everyone around him submitted themselves to Bush's mislead strategy?
* Why are we afraid of someone who is the greatest uniter of our political system since JFK?
* Why are we afraid of someone who has inspired thousands of previously disengaged individuals to rejoin the political process?
* Why are we afraid of someone who has the potential to be one of the great leaders this country has ever known?

America, as Obama would say, the time is NOW. Do not be afraid of change. Do not accept mediocrity. In this critical time in our history, vote for someone who will be truly historical.
