7. Obama came from a very poor background
His father is from Kenya and his mother from Kansas. He was proud to say that he won the Democratic nomination in a 7 person primary and defeated a candidate that spent 30 million. What this tells me is that we need good young vibrant candidates to run for major offices. I think the time is right for underdogs to win - people are fed up and looking for some leadership.
