Oakland: March 2007
Arrived late. Parked illegally. Streets empty. Still. Only this magnificent voice, winding around the corners, echoing upside the skyscrapers. Goosebumps. This is History. I am a part of history. And everybody else knows it, too

The Week That Was

Foreign Policy

Obama's campaign surged into overdrive last Friday afternoon in San Francsico and has been cruising on with such alacrity it appears as though they just might have tapped into 'the field'.

Big news items include the brilliantly timed roll out of Obama'a nuanced Foreign Policy speech at Clinton, Iowa, in which he presented undoubtedly the most refined and expertly crafted analysis of America's role in the 'new world order.' a role which establishes us as an equal player in the global arena. It is not too late!

Big Military Support; rates highest on environmental issues

A report by the non-partisan Center for Responsive Politics shows that Barack Obama leads all other presidential candidates in donations from people in the military. Ron Paul, another candidate who like Obama opposes the Iraq War, was in second place.

Good news also comes to the Obama campaign from the League of Conservation Voters that rates Barack highest on environmental issues among all the presidential candidates. Obama had a 96 rating compared to Dennis Kucinich who came in second with a 92 rating.
