i gotta say, i've never had the doubts you've had. a friend of mine sent me a youtube of him well over a year and a half ago and asked me what i thought of "this barack obama guy."
i was sold on the spot.
for many years -since i've registered to vote- this is the ONLY candidate i have ever gotten behind. i have always voted for the lesser of 2 evils 'til now.
i love his message, his delivery, his apparent humility and decency as a person. i believe that he can work within the global community. and i right now, i really think that he is the real deal, and that what colin powell believes of him is true -that he is a transformative figure, and the only one of my generation that i will get to see.
i am scared he'll lose. and to be honest, i'm scared he'll win and charade will stop. the rest of these guys have all been such shysters. anyhow. my 2 pennies. :)
