the audacity of hope?

Barack Obama announced his plans to form an exploratory committee today with this message...



Now it may sound completely hopeful, or a fun-ride after all these years of reducing the landscape of American leadership to a Bihari cattle-shed, to see someone talk about things intelligently even if you would assume for a moment that all this was a show. How many people in the world actively propagate belief in their dreams and have the courage to run against the odds and actually follow suit with these ideals, even when you realise that the pragmatism needed for the scope of the problems we face doesnt get discovered in dreams.

Or maybe thats exactly where its found. In dreams larger than cardboard boxes.

It sure will be interesting to follow this campaign. Its been a while since anyone who knows what they are talking has actually spoken.
