This is why he should be President: Reason #5,253,353

Here is a blog post by Senator Obama from 2005, following the appointment of Supreme Court Chief Justice Roberts. It clearly states Obama's vision for the Democratic party, and our nation. He took a lot of flack from the progessives in the Democratic party for this, but he clearly shows he is his own man, and truly represents a chance to remove ourselves from the gutter of Clinton/Bush/Rove politics.

Of course, Roberts has turned out to be a true friend of Bushism, but sometimes you just have to give the benefit of the doubt. In the long run, that attitude will win out, even if it loses some battles.
