Politics

For my writing exercise today, I will write about politics.

My biggest interests in politics right now with the democratic candidacy and the supposed nominee Barack Obama is simple. Our parents, and our parents' parents had to deal with race. Whether it was racism or fighting racism, it was present on the minds of many over the life of America since it's founding. To me, there is not an issue of race in this election. One of the youngest nominees, Obama, and an old bag of bones, McCain, are just going to find what really matters to Americans. If race becomes an issue, it will only be for older generations and ignorant voters.

The new generation of millenials is going to change the world this election. First of all, they feel the strain of health care, war, the economy, and gas prices. They are hit hard with education prices. They are conscious of the real issues and they are conscious of the problems in a way previous generations weren't. They have their future invested in this election I believe. For me, there are more educated and successful people coming out of my generation after Bush that there is no way there will be repeat of history will millenials are voting. We realize the costs of situations, we work well as teams, we are confident, we are strong, and we build the new voting block every day. More eighteen year olds graduate, they go off into the new world, and some of them are going to vote for Barack. The reasons why can always vary depending on the person and the research they've done, but they are illicited by the emotional dialogue Obama presents. McCain is extremely hard to relate to. Obama presents diversity, non-judgment, and a possibility for this country to be run with fairness. Of all things millennials are fair.

I vote for Barack because he can be trusted.
