  Well thanks to my friends in Beijing, I've been at home sick the past few days. Nothing to worry about though because it allowed me to watch the Democratic National Convention and to finally see Obama officially announced as the Democratic National Candidate. If you've been reading this blog or know me in any way what so ever, you know I have been supporting Obama for quite some time now. But this weeks speeches by all the big wigs of the Democratic parties really hit it home for me because they finally showed the solidarity needed to take back the presidency and make the move to bring America back out of the hell it's been in for the past 8 years. The primary battle between Hilary Clinton and Obama and the divisions it caused within the party had me worried that there may some huge struggles in beating McCain and keeping the old guard out of the White House. But this weeks DNC showed that the Democratic party is fully behind Obama to take the presidency.
  I was most impressed by Bill Clinton's unequivocal support for Obama in the speech above. He puts to rest all doubts that Obama may not be ready to lead as well as help bring all Hillary supporters to the forefront in this battle that needs to be won. Kudos to Bill for yet another great speech. Now we just have to make sure Obama wins this campaign. If you haven't registered to vote, do it now!! America has never needed your vote more.
  I've seen some comments from some of you about my Obama blogs, saying things like "Why should I care? I'm not American". Well the fact is you should care because it is the stupid things that the American government has done in the past 8 years that affects every single person in this world. George Bush has lead America like a common gangster, he pushed his way into the White House and has done nothing but use fear to lead the country into chaos. Him and all his oil buddies are sitting pretty as their pockets get fatter while you, the global consumer pays for it all. Rising gas prices doesn't only affect those who drive, it affects the cost of everything from airplane tickets to the price of food. So let's keep hope alive and hope for the rest of the world that Barack Obama becomes president in November.
