Letter: Obama’s leadership qualities win his support

Posted on Oct 10, 2012 - 11:56 AM Printer Friendly View

Editor, Gazette-Journal:

Though the historical significance of the 2008 election can be boasted, however Obama’s presidency can be defined as the finished product of blended diverseness of America’s great melting pot.

When asked, ‘Why are you supporting Obama?’ the answer is direct and in no uncertain terms—I am convinced of his leadership abilities. As did many of his predecessors, aside from having exhibited all the expected qualities of an executive leader … "he acts like the president."

Hopefully, being a nation of such resilience, America’s prestige will endure the onslaught and personal crucifixion of its embattled Head of State, Barack Obama.

Currently in composition, I am working on a mini-documentary highlighting the Obama presidency … from a personal perspective. Titled "Echoes of Change," availability to the public should be no later than Inauguration Day via the internet.

William P. Clayborne Jr.

Gloucester, Va.
