Politics as Usual

30 08 2008

What can I say people?  I will make this quick and try not to go to indepth unless somebody comment which would orchestrate a response.

I did not get the opportunity to watch all of the DNC (Democratic Nomination Conference) but catch some of M. Obama’s speech.  I did not hear her husband, B. Obama’s speech at all but I plan on going onto youtube to hear it.  That event was truly history in the making, just unbelievable event.  I listen to his running mate that he chose as vice president, J. Biden.  His son introduced him before he gave his speech.  I watched that part of the event at Tee’s brother’s apartment.  It truly was beautiful because his two highschool daugthers was watching the DNC and that was surprising.

I tell you what, this may sound terrible but honest, there probably would have been no way I would have watched that back in highschool if it was not a school assignment.  I just thought it was wonderful because a family had gathered together to watch this historic event.  Back to J. Biden speech, Ifound it to be a good introduction speech to people in this country who was not familar with him.  I thought it was an okay joice to pick J. Biden.

Most people probably do not listen to what the republicans has to say but I had to hear it.  I will mention that I do not consider myself a democratic nor republican but most or some of my views fall to the left wing.  I listen to Sean Hannity and Fox’s News because they are truly right wing supporters so I like to hear what the opposition has to say.  Tee and I mostly listen to talk radio in the car which also includes Rush L. too but most of the time I can’t take that guy and turn the station. 

J. Mc Cain was here in my local area at Wright Nutter Center and introduced his running mate Sarah Palin, who is the governor of Alaska.  I heard her speech and it was a compeling story about her life.  I tell you I was shock by his choice and then thought it was great stratgy regardless that he met her one time.  Yes, it is a gamble but I think it was a good one.  I said to myself, that DAMN Mc Cain.

I will not go into details about what I think because it would be too long.  Since I am older I follow politics some and of course with this begin a history in the making election I have been following it more than usual.  I always say that I am finish and will not pay attention but I always go back on my word.  Straight up people, politics is like chess.  It is all about making the right move and countering your opponent’s move.  It is all about strategy and you got to think a head because politics is a thinking man game.  Here is a paradox…even though B. Clinton, G. W. Bush and G. Bush do not know their headsfrom their tails.  It is all about your team and who you surround yourself with because most of them have a popcorn seed for a brain.

I just wonder if B. Obama was checkmate by Mc Cain. 

“Yes, we can.”- B. Obama
