I’m not writing cogent, thorough works of any sort very often (if you visit my writings section, you’ll notice) but some months ago I contributed an essay regarding my support for presidential candidate Barack Obama. I should stress that I don’t like politicians and attempted to make that evident in my essay. I believe there are often overlooked attributes and agreeably misplaced desires and concerns when seeking out an authority figure. Our process towards 2008 will be no different. An excerpt:

These worlds of conservative values, issues of race, and religion have at times negated one another. They’ve created a strange place in between where I have stood for some time. As such I’ve lived an impersonal life. Impersonal in my views towards people, race, politics. A life designed as a sort of safety where I could not find myself arriving at too many conclusions. An impersonal life for some time.
