Hillary Clinton is only one of two outstanding candidates for the Democratic nomination, and The New Mexican endorses the other: Illinois Sen. Barack Obama.
Shorter on experience, he also is unsullied by the quid-pro-quo world of Washington. That puts him in excellent position:
* To lead a long-overdue initiative toward universal health care;
* To lead another overdue initiative, on a new nationwide energy source;
* To lead our public schools out of the doldrums;
* To lead the country back to financial solvency and economic independence.
To lead, indeed. Sen. Obama is someone Americans can rally 'round.
His honesty will confound those trying to twist voters' perception of him and the working-people's party; his genuineness will disarm critics jaded over politics-by-rote; his academic brilliance and organizing skills will allow him to handle the complexities of the presidency; and his oratorical skills and compelling personality will inspire a long-lax nation to get off its collective butt and achieve what we're capable of.
