Regular readers will long ago have noticed that I prefer Senator Barack Obama as candidate for the Democrats. I know some disagree with my decision, and others feel that a Dane (person like myself from Denmark) should stay out of American politics.
In the interest of democracy I would say that we Europeans do follow the elections very closely for several reasons. One of these is the fact that we realize there is great importance in who LEADS America in the years ahead.
On foreign policy subjects, Russia, China, Iran, Iraq, the Middle East, Africa and the entire globe has global challenges that we need to get settled. Not only compared with wars but also in what concerns the weather and the impact from the environment. Such subjects are HARD for many Americans, at least when a Republican President is at The White House.
Internally, it is just as important to find a person that can unify the country. Americans have been scattered for many reasons. They need to find common ground, and in my honest opinion Senator Barack Obama WOULD become the best President.
Anyway, we will be busy following your primaries. :-)

Obama Says What Others Think...
It is a well-known trick to play "war-on-words" when issues are too difficult to deal with. The entire discussion between Clinton vs. Obama is primary example of that. Senator Obama says things straight as he sees them, and Hillary's crew has played war-on-words ever since she fell behind.
Look at the facts, folks. Obama runs his own campaign on ISSUES - issues confronting Americans, and involving other nations as we interact with America. The issues were never whether or not Hillary could become President. She no doubt could.
Facetiously one could even say she would be the first female president running for a third and fourth term. :-)
Just kidding. :-D
But, nonetheless, issues have NOT been at the center of the Clinton campaign. She has shown her worst sides and her ugliest ability to truly play politics. If anything, this campaign was the biggest proof that politics is a dirty business. We are faced with an opportunity to find common ground and none of it has ever sunk in.
To say it straightforwardly, Senator Obama has hit a nerve with many of the policies he has gained votes for. Why don't the Democrats start walking IN pace instead of the cacaphony going on at the moment?
I personally feel the Democrats are hurting themselves, and though senator McCain may not be any favourite he sure as anything has at least stood by his opinions. NOW is the time to decide on who the Democrats want to run for office. At least if in-fighting would otherwise continue.
"Think before you speak" is the best policy - everywhere and anytime. :-)

Why Barack Obama's Campaign Works...
Senator Barack Obama talks about community organizing and how he's carried that experience into his campaign. One very good reason why it's a success. :-)

After April Fool's Day
The best April Fool's Day piece of news would have been "Clinton resigns from competition to settle with family." Partly because everyone that knows the lady knows she's ambitious. She is stone-cold and has run a darn hard campaign. April Fool's Day would have been a good day to test the option.
But she didn't. To my knowledge noone else did either, but it sure would have been good news for the American people.
Chelsea is being used as one of the final pawns to bring momentum to a campaign that has clearly gone off the track long ago.
Move ahead and think. Make sure you participate if you live in any of the states running future primaries elections. The people is waiting for YOUR response.

Why Hillary Wants To Run for President
As most readers will have noticed, Senator Clinton has strange "recollections" - most recently she "remembers" both landing under sniper fire and that there was no welcome committee. Both claims clearly evidenced by CNN and other sources as completely the opposite of the truth.
WHEN you look at a Senator who claims knowledge of law - in fact even an attorney at law - one has to wonder how she ever made a living as a lawyer. She must have had a lot of clients jailed on counts of perjury if they had similar problems with recollecting what actually took place.
She's a joke, but it's no wonder she has to stay in politics. Her credibility is so bad she has to continue. Exit Hillary!!
The United States needs a true leader with good moral standards. Both candidates exhibiting those traits would be either Republican John McCain or Democrat Barack Obama.

Looks Like Hillary Is Loosing...
Just like I expected when I started following the American primaries, John McCain is the Republican candidate. In the absence of Condi running, John McCain is the next best choice from a Republican perspective.
Just as logical is the fact that Obama is still in the lead. Anyone with eyes to see can see why. He is a good speaker because he speaks truth, a natural leader and a moral person who truly brings pride back into the office he may very well enter after the General Elections will show the result.
I envision Barack Obama as the next President of the United States.
