Isabel P. Ball writes that Sen. Obama can bring values back to the American politics.
America might have truly deviated from the righteous pathway of politics, laid for us by our constitution architects. The values that have created the magnificence of America attest to its wholesomeness. In our time, erosion of said values is what we see occurring in America, now mired in domestic social problems of wayward citizenry immersed in unprecedented opulence, many reveling with the use of opiates, and on the other end, creation of social anomie, in throngs of hopeless people on the streets. Also, increasing and uncontrolled are criminals committing violence against children, killings in schools, crimes of passions, illicit sex and drugs, and alcohol, to civil crimes mar the social scene in a country borne of successful human experiment, unfortunately, facing a threat of moral collapse.
Is it any wonder why Barack Obama is viewed like a messiah? Or in a trendy context, consider BO a fashion, not a new design, but something that is worthy enough to come back into the loop. By nature, we always look for new things and new ways, and Obama is setting a trend, hopefully, his is a crusade back to civility.
