I did not run for the presidency to fulfill some long-held ambition or because I believed it was somehow owed to me. I chose to run in this election — at this moment — because of what Dr. King called “the fierce urgency of now.â€

Every time I read Obama's words in a speech, or of his response to people who decried his lack of a flag pin, or his comments about current events, the man has impressed me. I'd be quite interested to see how far he goes - if he becomes the Democratic candidate, I would certainly vote for him.
