"I'm asking you to believe, not just in my ability to bring about real change in Washington... I'm asking you to believe in yours."

I'm starting to understand why so many people are falling for Obama and not in so distant future, I might be one of them. haha I still am a Hillary girl but as my candidate had already conceded, I, too, must. It isn't a question whether to vote for Clinton or Obama anymore. The primary season has ended. Democrats must now unite.
In these times when we await a momentous episode, we should ask ourselves what we really want because as we move forward, a much bigger challenge is posed before us- change. Change from the old ways of governing that proved to be futile and sanctimonious, change from an administration that is putting more focus on arms than universal health care and quality education and change from a government that seems to care more about eradicating "terrorists" and searching for "invisible" armaments for mass destruction than edifying its people.
Contrary to what my professor in PA 108 told us that there won't be a significant effect on us whoever gets elected president of the United States, I believe that we will be better with Obama being elected especially to our fellow Filipinos living abroad as he is also part of a minority and he is determined to bring about the change- the change we all believe in.
