Regardless of how today's votes go, I think that Barack Obama should use his time speaking tonight to remind people of the generosity that makes Americans great. Instead of asking people to go to his web site and support his campaign, tonight he should ask people to donate whatever they can to help those struck by the disaster. He can speak about how even when times are at their worst for us economically, we must always remember that there are those in the world whose troubles are even deeper. He could also use this time to remind people once again that our own great city of New Orleans still needs help as well.
I would like to see this tonight because I think it would truly remind people how Barack is trying to transcend our current politics. Especially if tonight's results finally make it clear that Senator Clinton is going to have to concede, if in that case--rather than a victory speech--Barack calls on people to do something other than just cheer him on, I think he will show all Americans--including many Republicans--what he is truly made of.
