Every one has an Obama in him/ her

How many times have you preferred to go out for a movie than vote?

How frequently has the thought of standing in a long queue under the burning sun prevnted us from voting?

How often has the ‘one-vote-won't-count’ attitude stopped us from going to the poll booth?

Every vote counts. We should not belittle ourselves. And neither the influence of our presence to run the system. Each individual is an agent of change.

Obama is every common man.

His strength was his conviction in his own self. He too started off as a community organizer. His first step was small and full of challenges. But that did not deter him from taking it. He recognised the power of the individual. He had faith in himself.

And for India to change this conviction has to be imbibed into us. Each of us has an Obama hidden in us. All we need is to discover him.
