One might say that this year’s election for the democratic candidate is one that will hold historical significance in the future due to the undeniable competition between the two nominees. Not only are they both fit for the position as leaders but both Clinton and Obama have loyalty to his/her party to represent it well, if nominated. Neither candidate will back down unless there is a tremendous gap between their supporters and Super Delegates.
Clinton is confident and adamant over winning Michigan and Florida as she presumes she will. Clinton’s campaign sent out an email to reporters stating that she is now ahead of Obama in total votes but according to David Greene of National Public Radio, Obama is still leads by 500,000 votes.
The politic of politics shines through this action by Clinton’s people to show the American people that she is still in the race and that she will continue to strive for that victory. This places a fair amount of pressure on voters to choose the ‘right’ candidate because of all the deliberation in each state. Hopefully the American people will be more encouraged to follow the election coverage on the news and in the papers verses losing interest and letting history make itself.
The future is in our hands and it is up to us to elect a candidate who will represent our country in the best possible way.
