Obama's Vision for America

  • Multnomah County

I keep hearing people say over and over that they are voting for Barack Obama because he has a vision for this country.  I have read his views on the issues and the "Blueprint" for change.  I have been stumped on the whole vision idea.  I now have discovered that Obama's vision is based on his book "The Audacity for Hope".  I looked up the word "vision" in the dictionary.  It is a noun.  A vision is a concept, a dream.  Okay now I get it.  Obama's Vision for America is a dream, an ideal for America.  He has a great vision.  But...a vision is a noun not a verb.  A vision doesn't go anywhere without action.  We need change in America now.  We have to start somewhere right now.  Does Senator Obama have a plan of action?  As I have stated, I've read his "issues" statements.  There are some great visions.  But, there are very few statements about how the vision will be achieved, how it will be carried out and how it will be paid for.
