Politics

Well we have seen a lot of politics going on in India for quite a while i.e in A.P, Karnataka the elections and by-elections taking place. Now that has died down. But the interesting aspect in this is that..even though elections are taking place in one's backyard...the people were still trying to get news abt how the fight between Obama and Clinton was taking place. People were divided in the Democrats as against Republicans were the winner was already declared Mr.John McCain. The battle as we may call it, was very intense one and it was going head on head,till last month. And then the tides turn in favour of Obama and last week Clinton stepped down from the race and gave her full support for Obama. And she was hailed as the news agencies quoted "THE DEALMAKER", "THE KINGMAKER".
But lets not forget that, in a nation which has Democracy for the past 350+ yrs( sry for not knowing the exact time) a history WAS and IS in making. Why i say that is because till now there has never been a women president or a black president in the Oval office. It was a well contested fight between the 2 candidates of the same party to stand for the election. But in near future if US has a women president, then the credit would go to Hillary Clinton. As things turned out..the majority were voting for Obama, so Hillary had to stepped down at the 11th hour, so that the party goes with a candidate to the August convention, instead of two going and still making it uncertain,who will lead the campaing for the party.
So from now on....the Race for the WHITE HOUSE has begun in the two parties. I wud like to c Obama as the president for wht he says and also the policies he has given out.
