I can not join you in making fun of Obama and his supporters. [View All]

[Ninga]

Visionaries are often unappreciated. I believe Obama is a visionary, and is chastised by those who do not agree with his vision who in turn, demonise him and his supporters in the process.

Everyone knows the story of Christopher Columbus...sort of.

It took 300 years, and American author Washington Irving, to give credit to Columbus for his vision and belief that the world was not flat.

Columbus had a major competitor, Americas Vespucci, who was another explorer like Columbus. But it was Columbus who forged the way, ignoring the jokes and the criticism by his fellow explorers, and was proved to be right. Columbus was an under appreciated visionary, and did not live to see his accomplishments acknowledged.

In my view, Obama is a visionary, who has a view of the world that is needed right now.

Obama may not be as brilliant as Sen. Clinton, but he has enough experience along with wisdom and understanding to be a bridge and a willow, qualities which I do not see Sen. Clinton display.

In my view, the people who have devoted their time, commitment, name and credentials to be his advisor's, are people who have first hand knowledge of his qualities.

The people who are his top advisor's can not be considered to be stupid, shallow, misguided, or ignorant.

If Obama were a shallow, hollow man, with no substance at all, why would anyone with any self respect and concern for their reputation, agree to support and help in this effort?


Food for thought, for those who are hungry.
