Change I believe in

Barack Obama addressed the wide distaste for government -- and the fact
that he and John McCain are running against Washington -- at the forum on
national service at Columbia University.

"Our campaign from the beginning has been about changing government," he
said, recalling some great accomplishments of American government: Civil rights
legislation, the interstate highway system, and the National Park
system.
Obama would, he said, "transform Washington" and "
make
government cool again
".


There has been a distinct lack of coolness at all levels of government for at least the last 230 years. Thank god Obama has decided to take on this pressing issue! Many have tried, and failed but they were probably not cool enough for the task at hand.

I can only hope that when Obama's done changing our current uncool government into a cool government I will be cooler by association.
