The closing message of this long campaign

"America the time for change has come,"    Referring to   the thirty-minute television program that Barack Obama's campaign did as final phase of his campaign on Wednesday,John McCain commented sarcastically -a "gauzy, feel-good commercial,"

    The common scenes of the brutal exploitation of workers in the profit-driven Multinational corporations, and their working hours being cut in half and the instances of workers being laid off which is becoming the daily occurrences thanks to the current financial meltdown and also thanks to the neo-liberalism of Bush's eight year rule are not "gauzy, feel-good " scenes. The undecided voters particularly the working-classes have to decide firmly to change the state of affairs. The enormous statistics vindicates the formidable truth that the US economy, instead of helping the tens of millions of working Americans made them victims.

 

Barack Obama told a live audience in Kissimmee, Florida, "In six days we can choose an economy that rewards work and creates jobs and fuels prosperity starting with the middle class."

 

Obama chronicled the life of despair of the millions of working poor. Sick people not able to pay for medicine, sufferings of old people, teachers taking second jobs to pay for food, the third-generation factory workers watching the so called "American dream" coming to crumble, with the nightmares of dislocation and declining prospects.

 

He expressed empathy when he said:” I know what it's like to see a loved one suffer, not just because they are sick, but because of a broken health care system.” He firmly and successfully  draw the attention of the voters to  the one issue in this final stage of the campaign 2008,that is, the economy, declared officially  as experiencing deep crisis and also  stopped  benefiting the working Americans.

Undoubtedly, the closing message of this long campaign is this statement by Barack Obama:

"America the time for change has come,"
