Some saw the chance of the first woman President of the United States and others saw the chance of the first black President of the United States. Those that are somewhat color blind heard another first; a message not heard since the 1940’s: government for the common man.
When the excitement of a woman and a black person becoming POTUS wears off we will be left with a decision. Do we continue doing things the Nixon, Regan, Bush way? Or are we willing to support a White House and a political party that listens more to ordinary people and less to the military industrial complex, insurance companies and energy companies.
In the words of Democratic Party Chairperson Howard Dean:
“As of this morning, if you're a federal lobbyist, or if you control political action committee donations, we won't be accepting your contribution.
This is an unprecedented move for a political party to make -- one that has sent shockwaves through Washington and has turned the debate on clean campaigns upside down.”
Combine the blocking of lobbyist and special interest financed campaigns with the 50 State Strategy and I believe that you have the biggest change in modern American politics since Roosevelt and the New Deal. A woman or a mixed race man running in a presidential election will pale in comparison. K STREET in DC will change to k street in DC.
Your voice will heard, the Change is for real, Happy Days are Here Again
