Not Jesse Jackson! Not Al Sharton! Not even Colin Powell! Barack Obama, the freshmen Senator from Illinois, will be the first black President of the United States. Mr. Obama has something we haven't seen since William Jefferson Clinton was elected President. He's charismatic! Unlike Howard Dean, Democratic National Leader (I don't know why) or John Kerry, Mr. Obama has a way of getting focused attention (when he speaks) from Republicans, Democrats, white people, black people, Asian-Americans, Hispanics, and everyone else. Personally, I believe he has a better shot than Hillary Clinton (although I believe her time is coming). Maybe after the way the Bush administration treated Colin Powell, he could be Barack Obama's running mate (Vice President), then eventually succeed him in eight years. This would cover all bases. You will have the communicator (Obama) and the experienced military man (Powell). The Republicans couldn't say the Democrats don't care about National Security. Bush wouldn't be able to make statements like "There's a group in the opposition party who are willing to retreat before the mission is done," he said. "They're willing to wave the white flag of surrender. And if they succeed, the United States will be worse off, and the world will be worse off."
