Ever since the Democratic convention, my enthusiasm for the Democratic party has significantly grown. Many people my age often push aside politics as bullshit and annoying. Yup. You're right. It has been, but I write to you today in the hopes that you will reconsider. A new age is upon us. We are about to experience a major icon in history; one your grandchildren will read about in history books.
Two people from the Democratic Party are considering their candidacy for President. One is Hillary Rodham Clinton. Potentially the first woman to EVER step into the shoes of one of the most powerful position in American government. The second is a young man named Barack Obama. Potentially the first African American man to ever run for the Presidency.
Both in my opinion have the knowledge, the charisma, and the skills to lead this country into a better place. You may not agree. You may not be a democrat. But please consider becoming more aware and educated about how our country is run and who is running it.
