The Democratic Candidate Debate

hillbom

I spent my whole evening watching presidential debate between senator Obama and Hillary Rodham Clinton in Ohio. The greatest presidential debate I’ve ever lived through my life. And it IS a record that never a woman nor strong African American candidate in the American history. This is an eye opening. The two were very intellectual and civil people. What was very interesting is how they handled some tough hypothetical questions and how each take criticism. This what I want to see in Cambodia. I’ve learned about professionalism and I truly think this is how leaders should be for the role model of the countries. NOT about power, angers and intimidation. In this sense, “Cambodia’s” current government leaders are very primitive and uncivilized.

Being a president is a  very tough position, one would have to be able to handle issue on all level and about anything both national and international, know how to be ready on tough issue which can be beyond comprehension. I like both candidates and I have great respect for the two, Hillary came from a very strong background years of experience in the office and has traveled to eighty countries, amazing lady! The woman whom I have always admired. There are some part which I disagree with her during the debate where she accused Obama on plagiarism to boost the votes, that was very very low-cheap approach, it changed a slight image of her. Obama  clashed Clinton over the war in Iraq,  Health Care and NAFTA which Hillary and her husband voted  and I am not too crazy about their support.

In all they are great, I thought senator Obama was a brilliant candidate. So far, senator Obama is leading the democratic campaign. Hillary will have to win the primary state Ohio and Texas by 65% to be able win this campaign.

Text message via phone: “Who will win the campaign?” People called and the result were 70% for Obama and 30% for Hillary. Tough for Hillary to catch up!

-The American presidential campaign or voting system is so complicated which I have not quite understand how it works. There are primary and caucus votes to get to the delegate, then super delegate and final vote election in November.

-The debated has just ended an hour ago, I checked to see if someone uploaded the current debate on youtube, so far I don’t see it yet. But I think it will be up tomorrow.
