巴拉克.奥巴马
As Democrats send presidential candidate Barack Obama off on his quest for the White House, the Republicans and their candidate, John McCain, are preparing for their national nominating convention, which begins Monday in Minneapolis-St. Paul, Minnesota. The Democrats made Barack Obama the focus of their convention this past week in Denver, and not surprisingly, the Republicans plan to do the same at their convention next week. After all the convention speeches and political attacks, balloon drops and celebrity guests, the presidential election will still boil down to a simple choice - Democrat Barack Obama or Republican John McCain. Political expert Stuart Rothenberg has been watching the Democrats hold their convention in Denver this week and has been looking ahead to the general election campaign, which begins in earnest after the Republican Convention. "I do think the election continues to be about Barack Obama.The desire for change in the country is strong, and if Senator Obama can convince most Americans, the majority of Americans, that he will be a seasoned, sensible, trustworthy leader, I think they are going to take a chance with him. So far, he hasn't closed the deal." Even in Denver, Republicans did all they could to cast doubt about Obama's political experience, his ability to lead the country and his readiness to be commander-in-chief. Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani lost out to John McCain in the Republican primaries this year, but Giuliani is now going after Obama as one of McCain's main surrogate campaigners. "And I think Senator McCain would keep us on offense against terrorism, and therefore protect us, and I think Senator Obama would put us back on defense and that that would be certainly not as safe a situation for this country. Senator Obama's lack of knowledge about foreign policy is a serious concern. Democrats are well aware of the concerns that Obama is simply too inexperienced, especially in the areas of foreign policy and national security.
