I am interested in pragmatic pluralist politics, citizen participation, protecting democracy and exploring a full range of public policy issues from an Albertan perspective.
It is timely to revisit the will.i.am Yes We Can video that has over 15 million You Tube views so far. Tuesday is going to be enormous for those of us who want change and are up for the challenges.
Ken do you really think that the elite will really allow that much change to occur,change that will be noticable and better for the average person? It seems that as time wears on the political systems serve only the elite and the power is really concentrated.
I have been voting for 30 years and each election gets harder and harder to take seriously. It is easy to see the why the youth have lost interest in the democratic process.
Having Obama as a President will be interesting to watch.He managed to motivate people to become involved in the democratic process and I believe they have high expectations.
However having said that what changes would you predict might happen with the Obama administration?

Obama will 're-invent the wheel' in many areas. At least that is my hope... and many millions of others as well. YES WE CAN!!!!
