I was excited and encouraged by your life story and ideas to make positive social change - that's why I voted for you. I hate injustice, social inequality, greed, corruption, and war. I also believe you also hate those things. I didn't understand a month or so ago when people were questioning your deserving-ness of the Nobel prize. I heard your UN speech and found it inspiring. But I can't help but question what the heck you're doing now...sending more troops and proliferating war and occupation and the spread of the US empire seems inconsistent with the character I read about and admired in Dreams from my Father. I want to believe you are going to rise up and change the world - you certainly have the ability, but more war? Really? More military spending when we're facing the worse economy since the Great Depression? I won't say you've lost me quite yet...but you're losing me...cmon buddy.
