A New Dawn

After 8 years of George W Bush running the worlds most powerful and influential nation, it appears as though a new dawn has broken.

The fact that an African American has been elected to the highest office in the US and indeed the world is nothing short of a major historical triumph and although I am not American I do hope that the country that many people look to as a beacon of freedom and liberty can once more adopt those qualities for all to see.

I have to admit, seeing Barack Obama being elected was inspiring and it did change my view toward the US, at least for the moment. Hopefully the new US President will take his country in a direction other than the downward spiral that George W Bush has left for him.

People all over the world have been celebrating, almost as if they are colonies of the Great US Empire. If the US is indeed an Empire, then I would much prefer Obama to be the head of it.

New Zealand goes to the polls this Saturday to choose a new Government, I will be voting for a Party that, like Obama would be for Social change. But ironically I suspect that this small nation will gradually slide over to right, while the US goes left.

Vote New Zealand First !

If you want to tell the politicians that you care more about policy and what they are actually going to do for the country other than "scandals" then I urge you to vote NZ first.

Winston Peters is going to be "censured" for lying to Parliament. I think if a politician was to be censured for this then we would have no politicians left.

John key has lied, but he owned up about it, good on him, I Wonder if he would have owned up so quick if all this Winston Peters stuff was not happening?

Winston Peters said he will leave it up to the voters on the November 8th election to decide what they think of him, I for one will cast my vote for NZ First, for no other reason than to show the other politicians that I DO NOT CARE about this stuff.

Yes politicians need to have a integrity, but $100,000 being given to NZ First is as big a deal to me as John Key's action in trading shares in a company while commenting on it as an MP, but he gets away with it?

Vote NZ First and surprise the dirt diggers.
