About Me
- Name: Exiled in mainstream
- Location: Seattle, Washington, United States
I'm on a gap year. Well that's what all my colleagues tell me. I'm privileged to be working as a Harkness Fellow researching health policy for a year. My life bog "Call this rain?", is a reflection on the culture shock of moving 5000 miles west very rapidly and a way of letting a lot of people know what I'm up to. "Yeah but how does publishing it make it better" is a journal of my learning about American healthcare and reflections of how my research is progressing.

Barak Obama is being touted as the next Democrat President. As I remember Barak was a Judge who let a woman lead him though her name was Deborah not Hillary.
Well, will he or won't he run is a big debate on the news channels. He's an impressive figure in terms of his intellect and is achievements from a poor background. He's a lot less divisive than Hillary and more telegenic, though slightly less intelligent (who isn't?)and less experienced. The big issue would be could he win southern states. With this in mind it's worth watching the Tennessee sentorial election, first because winning at least two of the upper south states will probably be necessary for the democrats to win the presidency. And secondly, because the democratic candidate here is a young black man much like Obama.
