Barack Obama
Sometime at the end of January, when I had a few hours to kill at the club floor of some hotel in Seoul while waiting for my flight back home, I sat down and did some serious research about Barack Obama. What I found convinced me that he wasn't just a good orator. What I found made me believe that he was the right candidate to support. What I found is too long to post here given that I don't have much time now so I'll do it later.
Then Super Tuesday (5th February 2008) rolled along and America did not vote decisively for Obama as I thought they should. And I wondered if it was somehow my fault because I did not endorse Obama on my blog? Maybe the millions of imaginary American readers I have on this blog could have swung the vote clearly in Obama's favour if I had just told them before Super Tuesday that I would have voted for him?
You see, I generally don't discuss my political, religious or other personal beliefs and opinions with others because so many stupid & over zealous people have so often tried to convince me of their unsolicited, ignorant, & prejudiced religious beliefs. I tend to stay away from public discussion of the topic primarily because I couldn't care less whether anyone shared my beliefs, as long as they don't insist on sitting on my couch till I agree with their beliefs.
But in the case of the current Democratic primaries, maybe I should let my millions of imaginary American readers know, that I support this guy:
So don't vote for this lady. I'll let these pictures do the talking for now.
