As always I was debating with my friends over lunch about the current happenings. And we came to the topic of the newly elected President, Obama. Okay.. Though he is now the president of one of the most powerful nations in the world.. I think I really dint bother so much about it because my faith in elections,politicians and presidents has almost subdued.
So here we were discussing about Obama’s speeches.. I felt that the only way I could ever be able to appreciate or admire this man is if he actually was able to turn his speeches and thoughts into reality.. Not that I dint believe in him.. but not yet.. he still has a lot more to do before he can win my heart!
Anyways .. being my friends… they dint stop there and forwarded me loads of links.. obama’s speeches.
It was then that I heard that man.. I heard him with concentration and faith..
And I believed in him.. More importantly i trusted him...
Its not like I did not listen to those speeches before.. but the way he described the American middle class families and his reasoning for the racial divide existing in America started making lot more sense..
He “changed” my perception about leaders!! And I hope he brings about a lot more positive changes..
I think what India needs today is a person who can bring back the lost faith in democracy and be a leader in its true sense.. Someone like the man America has chosen to lead them!!!
