If the Democrats wish to win the next US election, then they must make quick & drastic changes as follows:(1) Clinton & Obama join force.(2) Majority of the US people are 'not quite' ready yet for a 'black' president therefore if Obama gets nominated, Democrats will lose the gen. election.(3) I suggest Clinton run for presendency with Obama as her V.P.(4) Obama for his 'sacrifice' must be given a written agreement that she will not run for a 2nd term but would instead, fully back Obama for 2012 presidential election.(5) I believe the best chance Obama (as a black) has of becoming the US president is if he starts as someone's V.P. 1st, then show all the American people that he is indeed ready to serve in the capacity of President inspite of 'colour'. I am a Nigerian, with nothing to gain win or lose the democrats, but I think is time to put politics aside and help bring America back to its former glory, & I believe only the Democrats can make that happen sooner. I have all due respect for Mr. McCain, but I can see him leading America towards deeper economic recession, and more frighteningly, toward an even more 'hostile' foreign policies than Bush has. God bless America.
