Political astuteness?

Political astuteness, or not, this is an entry that I posted on facebook about christianity/faith and presidential candidate Barack Obama. I don't fear that it is a premature thought or feeling but as more information becomes public and available I will see how this initial statement holds up. ( a quick side note, I have put a lot of time into learning about Barack and watching and listening to him, so this wasn't on some bandwagon whim).

Ignorance is dangerous-

I am so enthralled with the democratic race right now, so motivated to finally have something to believe in, something to believe in that I feel lines up with the compassion of Christ, I believe that as scary as it might be that real change might actually occur we will finally have a president that cares so much about PEOPLE, and if I am not mistaken that is what Christ was about, not about insuring our economic free capitalistic market so that we are all comfortable in our lifestyles (but as a side note I in no way feel that that will change). Barack Obama, to me, is that presidential candidate and I intend on researching and making myself so familiar with his issues and ideas that I will be able to have conversations with whomever might have misconceptions about his "democratic" ideals and show them that they are actually more like their own than they realize. This is why ignorance is dangerous, the lack of knowledge on a certain candidate might lead us to ASSUME things that aren't true and can prevent us from having the most compassionate and people centered president we have had in a long time or ever."
