Endorsement Letter - Obama for President !

Obama the Right Choice for our Country


In politics, I’ve long been a supporter of positive change and tangible improvement plans, whether in our Town, our State or our Country.

Soon, we will have a chance to make a choice for the candidate that will represent the Democratic Party in the 2008 election. I proudly support Barack Obama and ask that you give him, his policies and positions and his new brand of unifying politics a careful look as you make your decision on who to support in the February 5th primary.

On issues ranging from health care, to foreign policy, education, fiscal and tax policy and on and on – Obama is the candidate of real, demonstrable change. I think he’s the kind of candidate who as President can heal the wounds created by 8-years of the Bush/Cheney Administration.

We need a President who can heal international wounds – make America a leader on the world stage again – not just with military might – but with diplomacy and leading by moral example.

We need a President who can address the countless domestic problems that have been either created or ignored over the last 8-years.

We need a President that can inspire a new generation of Americans to come back to public service, volunteerism and civic involvement.

I truly believe that Barack Obama can be that President.

The usual politics of saying and doing anything to get elected has created the apathy we see today and it’s not what we need in a leader at this critical time in our history.

I ask you today to take a close look at Obama as you prepare to cast your ballot on Feb. 5th – I think you’ll be impressed with what you see.

Sincerely,

Curt Balzano Leng

Councilman, 6th District
