Democratic National Convention

I don’t have much knowledge about US politics and history but learning very hard now. I followed this presidential election process from start, may be because of our high profile candidate Barrack Obama from Chicago. Last 3 days, it was a great chance to acquire more knowledge from one of the leading political party’s convention. Each day there are new speakers better than previous day’s speakers, setting bar high and high. I believe as of now better speaker award goes to Joe Biden. He mentioned his father’s words of ‘when you get knocked down, get up very fast, get up’ is something everybody should follow all the time.

In my mind, I created some negative image for Biden because I read about his comments about splitting Iraq into 3 pieces and ‘you can’t go to 7-11 or Dunkin Donuts unless you have slight Indian accent’ [Source : CNN.Com]. Now I’m thinking that he is a straightforward, bitter outspoken, emotional man. He would tell whatever he thinks from his mind. I think we [world] need that kind of leadership now. We need somebody to tackle Cold War II like a scenario. Because of high oil price of last 6-8 years, our world’s wealth 'proportion disarrayed'[Oops lack of better words] and some former Soviet Union nations got more wealth than other. Obviously Russia becomes arrogant day by day because of wealth and already inherited technology, talent, natural resource from Soviet, I hope they won’t go back to those ideology way. But at this time, we need great candid leaders like Joe, Obama to talk with Russia and other Soviet Union countries to avoid cold war scenario.

Today is great day for Obama to reconnect with voters. He is a great speaker and charismatic leader, but the challenge is how effective he is going to convert his attraction into votes. McCain from other side also getting more attention and he will become spotlight at Twin City Republican Convention.
