WHY OBAMA (by Hernán Larraín Jr.)


Taken from www.independientesenred.cl

something seems to be agreement in regard to cross U.S. elections: what comes next George W. Bush, the better. Now the question is who, Obama or McCain. And while both have good reason to be elected, Obama represents the best option today, preceded by a phenomenon that is not just elections, but political and even social.

Obama has come to impose a political project is, above all, epic. Faced with this, good reasons or financial strength alone is not enough. In contemporary societies, the politics of emotions is necessary, and Obama is the best example.
is now repeated, but true: the current U.S. presidential campaign has already become a landmark historical, and that is just beginning. The central factor of this fact is called Obama. Chanted the explanation so far to describe his victory over Clinton, in addition to an innovative campaign and a clear message of hope and change, has been his charisma and aura of inspirational leader. But it goes much deeper than this. The primaries have managed to rescue the U.S. encourage the down anymore, due to the war in Iraq and the fragile economic situation. In this context, capacity has been key to revitalizing the ailing U.S. policy as a legitimate place to dream the future. Against the cynical and disaffected from politics, both at home and in el resto del mundo, el candidato demócrata ha venido a imponer una revolución que es por sobre todo simbólica. El liderazgo de Obama es emocional y sistémico, pues vuelve a demostrar que al inyectarle épica a los desafíos públicos, la confianza de los ciudadanos puede volver a los políticos y especialmente, a la democracia y sus instituciones.

Pero la emocionalidad de Obama está acompañada de buenos argumentos. Un ejemplo  de ello es su visión de política exterior. La postura que ha asumido acerca de la guerra en Irak y las relaciones exteriores de EEUU con sus pares, representa un elemento diferenciador medular. This has imposed in his speech the primacy of diplomacy over military force. For his part, McCain is a strong proponent of the invasion of Iraq and wants the U.S. to maintain "a peacekeeping force" indefinitely. Obama, who opposed the war, today proposed a withdrawal over 16 months. The message is simple: Obama is peace, McCain is war.
Another example is the freedom of action as a potential president Obama. The use of new technologies in his campaign has not only been a blow to the chair in the mobilization of bases, spatially among young people. The makers of 'Yes we can' have generated a grants to avoid Obama being co-opted by large corporate groups and lobbyists in the case coming to Washington. A single statistic: 94% of their funding is for grants of less than $ 200. The message? Obama is an independent, not McCain.

Examples abound and point to the same thing: Obama is a phenomenon and its story is not just marketing and rhetoric. Obama's narrative is, at heart, the heart of his project. And to beat this weapon, of course, will take more than good political rationality and traditional. But just ask Hillary.
