Hey fellow Obama bloggers!

I am a 17 year old student and avid supporter of Barack Obama!

I just wanted to take this opportunity to tell everyone that I am glad that this campaign for the nomination has been so close and hard-fought. Here’s why… All of us are forced to fight for Barack. I think that this close campaign has brought all of us closer together and strengthened us as individuals. I know that no matter what happens in November, there will be millions more educated, aware citizens of the blessed United States of America. I think that this close campaign has strengthened us in our values and our beliefs and make what we are on the verge of accomplishing that much more significant.

For these reasons, I will say right now that I HOPE that John McCain does not make any silly mistake or gaffe that causes everybody to immediately jump ship to Obama. I want people to see Barack’s message and the true content of his character. If Obama wins the election easily, there is a greater likelihood the American public will go back to the same old same old next year. Barack can’t propose legislation or write a speech that will change this country! It will come from the people! That’s why I think this close election is really such a gift because people that are switching to Barack are not doing it because the other candidate is ridiculous or unworthy (well we won’t get into personal opinions) but because they believe in his message! I want every single person voting for Barack Obama to believe. I want every single person voting for Barack Obama to become a strong individual in society so that we can all live in a better world in 2009. That’s why I’m grateful for this close race. That’s why I’m thankful for Barack.

Never forget: Yes WE Can!

Zach
