yes we can...

like him or not, you gotta admit, this is a pretty stirring piece of work...



fwiw, i like him. i wanna be FOR someone this time, not against someone. i like hillary too. unfortunately, due to this crazy assed primary set-up, i'll probably never have to choose between them, other than symbolically. by the time our primary rolls 'round, the decision will have long been made. [EDITED TO ADD: well...maybe not!]

i feel that on many important decisions facing the next president like; iraq, the economy, security, judges, taxes, immigration, the infrastructure of this country (or we continue to blow up and then rebuild highways, bridges, schools and fire stations in iraq while our's crumble here, masters of war indeed) etc., that i would find similar acceptable results from both obama and hillary. but, i do feel strongly that health care and insurance is one of the single biggest issues and potential disasters facing this country and that some sort of health care reform has a greater possibility of getting passed under a clinton administration than any other. she has been a long time very vocal advocate and it is important to me personally.

but, i do love the passion, hope and fire in his voice, i do love that he's inspiring and getting young people involved. very kennedy-esque. i'd love to see them on a ticket together, not saying who'd be "on top," but i think they'd be tough to beat.
