Obama's campaign from the start has been different. It must remain different to win. That's the reason I signed on, donated continuously, and remain committed today. In order to win, you have to fight. Although, you must be strategic and fight smart, not just hard.
Please follow me after the fold for a tactic, that may help, and a poll on who would be best to help.
So at this point we have seen that Samantha Power has resigned from the Obama Campaign as Senior Foreign Policy Advisor. It was the right thing to do and showed leadership.
As the saying goes, "When life hands you lemons, make lemonade"
Let's turn this negative into a positive.
Obama can fill her position with two people.
The first can be an academic. This individual will do the facts and figures work required in the position.
The second can be a politician. This individual can be a national security expert. Someone, who has instant credibility on national security and foreign policy. This individual will also, be in the running for the VP slot.
This approach does a number of things.
- Turns a negative into a positive.
- Obama will rule the news cycle, as speculation starts on who his VP choice will be.
- The VP discussion will slow down the Clinton/Obama ticket meme, that Hillary keeps spreading as part of her kitchen sink tactics.
Please see poll, and let us know who you would like to see fill this role.
