Some things that I have seen on the internet the past couple days has troubled me. Some people have been suggesting that we need to punish red states and reward blue states. I swear these people never listened to Obama and his message. Obama is not blowing smoke when he says "there are no red states, or blue states, there is only the United States of America" The Republicans have run the country the last eight years for themselves and for the red states. Bush was a red state President, not an American President. Obama is showing he is different. He will be a President of the United States, a President of all people. We should not be looking to punish red states, we should be looking to make them blue states!

So the day is finally here, after a long primary season and what seemed like an even longer election season, all of our hard work seems like it is going to pay off in every way imaginable. It appears for the first time in eight long years it looks like we are actually going to elect a President. Finally after eight years of fear, divisiveness, attacks on our liberties, freedoms and our constitution; the voices of the people are going to be heard, and we along with the Obama campaign and democrats everywhere are going to make sure that the GOP cannot stifle the voices of the people anymore. I am so proud today to stand along side fellow Americans in rejecting the politics of the last eight years and bringing with us a revolution of change to the country that it so desperately needs.

On September 5 a popular author and journalist named Heather Mallick did what any good journalist would do, she called out the Sarah Palin VP pick for what it really is. Of course, forming an opinion (especially from a female) is strictly opposed by Fox News so of course, Fox had to once again attempt to threaten and silence a journalist through lies, misinterpretations and intimidation.

A Clinton aid has said that Sen. Clinton will not be attending a demonstration at the UN headquarters because of Sarah Palin's attendance.

U.S. Sen. Hillary Clinton canceled her appearance at a demonstration against the president of Iran after learning Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin will be there, a Clinton aide said on Wednesday.

A group of Jewish organizations had said both Palin and Clinton would speak at the protest near the United Nations on Monday against Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who has said Israel should be wiped off the map.

I had a fairly traumatic youth. My parents were excellent parents but parents cant be super heroes. They tried to do their best but external factors influenced our lives so much, and the only reason I turned out the way I did was because of my parents love and because of community organizers like Barack Obama.

The image McCain has presented of himself to the country, is very different than what he actually believes and all of us here know that but, there are many that do not know that. Well the best way to show the country that would be to make an ad, and what better way to show this than to compare his apparent beliefs to that of his token VP. Also, as we all know Palin's views are very extreme and since McCain would like us to think he is a maverick and independent why would he pick someone so against his apparent views.

My Father is not a very political man, he votes but does not really go beyond that. He has voted Republican in the past and really liked John McCain (of 2000) He had told me that he might vote for Obama in the GE but it could change. Well we watched the speech together last night, and were having breakfast together this morning when McCain announced Palin as his VP. Well this morning he told me that he will be voting for Barack Obama no matter what!

For anyone who watched Colbert last night, he started a new green screen challenge. It is Project Make McCain Exciting. It is taking McCain speech last week and using the green (the colour Jesus made magical) background to basically make fun of McCain. If you want to take up the challenge visit The Colbert Nation. It also has some of the videos posted, but I will post some here too.

The Economic Club of Toronto has announced that John McCain will be speaking in Ottawa on June 20th. NAFTA will almost certainly be the topic of the day. It seems quite obvious to me that he will spend the entire time talking about how he would keep NAFTA and Obama would destroy it, along with Obama wanting to kill Hockey, Beer, and Beavers, and want to form a North American Union....I assume. But little does John McCain know, he is a moron. I could really end the diary there but I guess I could explain why he is a moron in this instance.

Update: I will try and get the video for the speech, I am sure people in Ohio, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Indiana, and numerous others, would love to see him defending NAFTA!

I thought I would collect all of the front pages from around the world and some close to home declaring Obama the winner! Enjoy!

Note: My language abilities only go so far so if I made a mistake, please leave a comment. I am currently traveling to Vancouver and will not be able to check back very often to correct things.

Today, Saturday, my Grandfather died as a result of Parkinson's disease. ( and in September my Grandmother, on the other side of my family, died from Alzheimer's, but today I want to talk about Parkinson's) The two thing that gets me most upset about this, is that I know Stem cells could have saved his life (and my Grandmothers) and the second part is that I have a strong possibility of also being diagnosed with Pakinson's. Seeing my grandfather in the condition he was, was devastating to me. (My Grandmother was also in a similar condition) He could not speak no matter how hard he tried, he could not have said goodbye, or I love though I know he did. I do not want my children or grandchildren to have to struggle seeing me that way, I don't want to struggle with them seeing me in that condition.

This will be a short diary but it is something that has been nagging at me for some time. Going into the convention, Clinton will most likely be only a few hundered delegates behind Barack Obama. If she wants, she could force her way onto the ticket as Baracks VP. If you recall

The vice presidential candidates of the major national political parties are formally selected by each party's quadrennial nominating convention, following the selection of their presidential candidates. The official process is identical to the one by which the presidential candidates are chosen, with delegates placing the names of candidates into nomination, followed by a ballot in which candidates must receive a majority to secure the party's nomination.
