Why Barack Obama Could Be Our Next President

One thing has been made crystal clear in the last few months. Barack Obama has captured the minds, hearts and hopes of citizens from coast to coast. Americans are tired of poor performance from our Executive branch. The presidency should be reserved for those who can lead competently while inspiring all of us to keep reaching for our goals. Barack Obama can do just that, and supporters across the country believe he's the first candidate in over a decade who will breathe fresh air into the White House and bring fresh ideas to the nation.

The movement to elect Obama has reached spectacular heights. In February the Obama Campaign received over $55 million from public support - 90% of which was from donations of $100 or less. This amazing show of support is the largest ever for a candidate in one month, and it's part of the clear message from the country: "We believe in this guy. He's smart, he's trustworthy, and he has bold ideas for our country. We want him to lead us."

This is a movement that won't put up with more of the same. John McCain, while a great war hero, intends to continue many of George Bush's plans, potentially keeping us in Iraq and Afghanistan for many years to come. Not only is this not acceptable, it's just plain scary.

Obama has inspired younger voters to be more active in the 2008 presidential campaign. Sure, younger voters ought to be concerned with this election. Afterall, it's the younger voters who are going to be paying the most for our current multi-trillion dollar war and numerous other mistakes by the current administration.

Support for the Illinois Senator's campaign increases daily. Obama supporters are getting to the polls in large numbers. Americans are ready for a real change. They are excited about Barack Obama leading this great nation. People are really exhausted by the last seven years of George Bush and his infamous administration. Over the last seven years we've seen one scandal or political trick or mismanagement after another.

We're ready to move forward. We're sick of politics as usual. It's time to once again take charge of our great nation and achieve greatness.
