The People’s President – the documentary

I just discoverered a documentary about Barack Obama’s road to the White House. The film, titled ‘Barack Obama: People’s President’, is written, produced and directed by Danny Schechter, who was involved in ‘Weapons of Mass Deception’ and ‘Viva Madiba: A Hero For All Seasons’, which told the tale of Nelson Mandela. Danny Schechter is a [...]

Waiting for the boost…

The majority of Americans have spoken. We’re ready for big changes in this country, and we are putting our support behind the new President.

ONE MORE DAY TO GO!

With less than 24 hours to go, there’s a lot of excitement in the air.

Happy Birthday, Howard Dean!

Today, the first politician I ever volunteered for celebrates his 60th birthday. Howard Dean, the outgoing-leader of the Democratic Party has plenty of reasons to celebrate today.

Obama Countdown with 5 days to go..

I don’t know who took this photograph of Barack Obama and a beautiful girl, but it’s one of my favorite photos I’ve seen from the Obama campaign. To me, this expresses the feelings that so many of us feel. It’s the starry-eyed sense of hope for a better future. Barack Obama delivered a very powerful [...]

Countdown – 10 days to go

In the past few days, Barack Obama put his presidential campaign on hold to visit with his ailing grandmother in Hawaii. This was certainly not an easy task to do, as he had to change course in the final weeks of a very intense campaign, be confined on an airplane for 9 hours, get a [...]

The fight for that which is the United States of America

Last Sunday, when Colin Powell made his endorsement for the Obama candidacy, he reminded us of what the United States of America is all about- the freedom to worship as one feels fit. Freedom of religion, as well as freedom of speech is one of the guiding principles of the American dream. “Is there something [...]
