Democratic National Committee

I have missed watching all of the Democratic National Convention. Not on purpose, I have worked the past two nights. I sit now and watch the rerun of today's events. My favorite party of teh conventions, the Roll Call. I always getting excited about the roll call, whether democrats or republicans. I was mad today because I was looking forward top watching it live and i missed it, my confusion over timing. I am glad I get to see it now though.

I have always wanted to be apart of the convention. In fact lately more and more, my desire to get into politics has grown tremendously. Last summer I asked my neighbor about getting more involved. She is highly involved with politics locally and was excited to hear about my interest. She re-approached me again a few months later to see if i defiantly was interested. However, I took another path and decided to travel and discover the nation and world i live in. I feel this is apart of my growth and if i intend to go into politics will broaden my perspectives and views. Of course I am not sure if i am truly cut out to be apart of politics. I have always wanted to try to make a change in this world. Though, I'm sure that is why many go into politics. But I have to wonder how much change they really make.

Back to the Democratic Convention.

I was and still am a supporter of Hillary Rodman Clinton. In my heart I do feel she was the better candidate and better chances of winning the race for president. With that said though, I will still vote for Obama. I think he will help this country to reverse it's downward spiral that Bush and the Republicans have taken us. I wish though it would have been Hillary. Although Obama has my vote, I have not jumped on teh bandwagon and I don't see myself doing so. He does not have heart like Hillary does. I don't want another republican in office, that is why I will vote for him. I have I do worry though whether the rest of the country will yearn for the same change and vote for Obama. I think a majority of teh Hillary supporters feel the same way and that scares me. It scares me because I am afraid many will resort to voting for McCain . I Pray this does not happen. Anything is better than McCain or another Republican in office!
