The New Statement:Obama and our dim dreams

Finally the day comes. 4-th of November 2008.The American elections, and Barack Obama become the projected president of US.He is the one who convinced American people about change.It is good and fascinating.

In order to express my thoughts about this event, I want to organize my entry in two parts: a)All happenings up to the election of Obama b)After election and up comings.

a)Election of Obama

1)Lately reading political texts of Karl Popper, about the government, I liked the part that he declare the question as below:Which political power is the best one?

and after giving some reasons he concluded that this question is not philosophically be answerable so the better statement about political power is this :

The suitable political power is the one that can be changed by the will of people with out any war and any blood.

I mentioned above to conclude that the change of Bushian type of policy to Obamaian policy/even in pre election talks/ is a minimal example of the thing that Popper mention it.

This is the point.

2)Secondly I want to state my opinion about the election of Barack Obama in some literary mood! looking at the election of Obama as the symbol of youth and the change ,the symbol of new era and this symbolic movement is good and great in its essence.No matter what will be happen after, the up comings I think will not effect on the goodness of the essence of Obama-winning .

Why I state this?

I think the paradigm that was installed in American life,about the rethinking about the past,about the values,about the world and about the change is so precious.

I can assert that really something different happened in American reality.And the point is that they finally think about the possibility of being wrong.

Anyhow in the other perspective,I want to make an analogue between Obama and Napoleon.Napoleon Bonaparte in the late 18 century is the symbol of change,new era and hope. Pay attention that the later emperor in its place is not going to destroy the fantastic picture of 1789.Obama has the same resemblance now.He is the symbol of new word and world and hope.

3)Election of Obama is the thumbs up mood for the black people.The people that were not hear ed in last 3 centuries.They celebrate their rebirth in the facade of Obama.It is important.

Maybe this is an aspect of democracy,that , finally a group of people become alive again, being winners.

4)I do not assure about this,but anyhow I prefer it.

Obama has the backing of the intellects, academicians and people of knowledge.

Although the theory of philosophy-king of Plato is not reliable,really I mean.

But the Obama is the type of the one who seems more plausible person for the people of knowledge and freedom.

5)The winning of the Democrat party in 70% person based on the conflict of Bush-Obama thesis and antithesis.The synthesis result is something else but the fact the finally after Kennedy the Democrat party win the election because of real difference from conservative Republicans is great.

6)Obama talked about ordinary people more than veterans,heroes , politicians and great man.
He has the will to talk about ordinary people.

Finally the November 4 in our era is really,really I mean great.

b)After election

1)Do not forget that 56800000 peoples vote to MC Cain !!!

This is a number that you should not forget about the people that do not vote to Obama.

2)World policy,country policy,economics and ... are not issues that can be one side way effected

I mean that it is not so simple that a person says "red" and all the country works and live "red"

so we must not look forward to see the America or the world Obamaized!!!

3)The era of the heroes are finished after world war II,nowadays the systems,communities, political powers and paradigms speak.

so the hero style Obama is a dim dream.

Finally and anyhow I think that the change is not the process of one year or a term as Obama said in his day of victory,the hope of the change is valuable.

Obama is a movement is a new statement and I appreciate its election, independent of our dreams.
