Today Barak Obama spoke to roughly 2100 people in El Dorado Kansas. This was the first time I've listened to Obama speak (usually I'll read them on his website) but since he's in my state I thought I would give him a listen.
I was really impressed with how well he spoke and how he worked the crowd. But what impressed me the most was the things he wants to do as president. He was talking about seniors of retirement age making less than 50k/yr not having to pay income tax any more. He also talked about a 4k/yr college credit that would be "paid back" through time working for the community (think homeless shelters, VA hospitals, ect...).
Those are just a few things that he talked about and I have to say if he can keep his campaign promises he just might make for an amazing president.
