This is it. We've all been hoping so much the past five months for an end to the hotly-contested democratic party primaries, and now they're officially over. It would be a lie to say that I didn't have chills when Obama spoke last night in Minneapolis to that packed arena - and announced that he accepted the party's nomination for President of the United States. What is so special to me about Barack Obama is not all the media hype surrounding him, but how genuine he looks when he smiles. He speaks simply to his audience, yet doesn't talk down to them. Unlike other politicians that I've heard over the years, he doesn't talk about what he will be doing in office, but rather what we will be doing as a coalition of young voters - I see him more as a movement leader than as a figurehead, and this is a welcomed change. I urge everyone to sit down and listen to one speech given by him - if it doesn't make you hopeful and restore your faith and love in America, then I'm not sure anything will.

they've got you fooled...
there will always be the politician to instill such hope.... they are running for office- of course they are trying to make you feel like that so you will vote for them.
obama was chosen by the global elite for this job. i feel sorry for all those duped by this puppet.
