My Political Woman.

I am very interested in politics at the age of seventeen. Tonight I watched the Democratic Convention, as I did last night, but tonight was most inspiring. Hillary Clinton spoke and she was absolutely great. When Obama and Clinton were battling it out I didn't really have a preference towards one more than the other. I just wanted a Democrat to win office. Well now that Obama holds the nomination I got to appreciate Clinton. Tonight she spoke about her policies saying that Obama would follow through with them, she jabbed at McCain saying we cannot endure four more years of another Republican administration. Then she talked about health care as she usually does. I loved how she ended the speech by making me empowered as a woman. She made me feel so proud to be a woman. Then she related it all back to how Barack Obama should be president and you are not a Clinton supporter without supporting him. She was great, just great. Honestly if McCain wins i will try my hardest to leave the country and study abroad because all the hope I conjured up in this election in the American people will be lost. I do not understand how people can still believe lies...
