he face of America has
deceived most, carrying the country into eight years of struggle and
turmoil. The spirit of the deceiver has lead us into countless
opportunities to encounter adversity, with an enormous number of troops
fighting in Iraq, oil issues, and the notorious No Child Left Behind
Act, and many more.
Our souls, spirits and
livelihood have depended on the deceiver to only be fixed into an
institution of his own, leaving us to fend for ourselves.
In light of this, in January
of 2009, we will be delivered from this hand of corrupt power, into the
hands of another frontier, a powerful force, which will bring the change
America desperately needs to transform into the country everyone sees as
a leader.
The campaign slogans for two
Democratic presidential hopefuls have been change.
Change in what sense? Change
in the way the world operates or making changes in their own lives, as a
means to advance in their own desires, with an opportunity to promote
their own voice.
That’s politics right?
"Something is about to
happen" and "I have found my voice" are strikingly good ear catchers,
heart movers, and spirit leaping statements.
However, are they authentic?
Do we finally take a rest
from it all, sip tea, and relax, as we leave the country in the hands of
our newly-elected president?
We will see.
This presidential election is
a daunting task. People feel that they have more voice and respect in
this election than previous elections.
Just face it, all you have to
do is take it as seriously as you would a vote for the next American
Idol.
People vote in high numbers
to choose the best vocalist, this person in turn changes the face of the
music industry and becomes someone that many people cherish and admire.
But the presidential
candidates have a rougher road ahead of them. The have to convince
people.
There is no doubt it’s time
for a change, but are the candidates the right ones?
Honestly, we have to trust
our instincts, and hopefully the candidate we select will make our
country proud. Moreover, we don’t have a magic wand to delve into the
future to see who will win, and what changes they will make.
Our hope is that we will
trust in God, that he whispers into the candidate’s ear, and speaks to
the issues that need significant change.
Illinois Sen. Barrack Obama
has a serious message, using the rhetoric of Dr. Martin Luther King, to
move people from hopeless to hope.
His messages are moving and
he provides a living testament to how he plans to change the face of
America. He has a strong religious faith, and moral character. He has
captured the faith of many African-Americans and others who are joining
the bandwagon of change.
New York Sen. Hillary
Clinton, on the other hand, is promoting her experience as a helping
mate to her husband, who served in the White House for eight years. She
is trying to lure voters to believe that she is promoting innovative
ideas and new ways of thinking.
I have lifted my spirit,
joined the cause, and effectively analyzed change. Change occurs on a
daily basis. We encounter this every day and it moves us into a new way
of thinking.
Joining this team in their efforts to make a
difference is nothing but positive in my view. As we look into the
exciting future, let’s think wisely and positively and encourage
ourselves and others that change is about to happen.
