The 2008 election marks a milestone in history - minorities are running for presidency. There's the woman - Hillary Clinton, and the African-American - Barack Obama. We have never had a woman or a minority in office. Is America ready for it? Or should things stay the way they have been? Some argue that if a woman is president, then other countries - specifically those that look down on women - will lose respect for America. Others argue that it's about time for some major changes; we need reform!
What do you think? |

Well, in my unbiased opinion, people like Obama because as a Senator he's displayed that he can work mutually with both Democrats and Replubicans. He also supports gun control measures, which might help improve the safety and violence that happens. He's also been noted to support plans helping veterans.
There's other things, but I can't think of them at the moment. |
