Mavenator,

Of course there's nothing wrong with using your talents. As a matter of fact, you should! My point is that Obama and Clinton each has her own set of talents - and there are very different. I think that Clinton's passion has always been for government and how it can make things better. Obama's talent really lies in rhetoric and performance, being on stage. I personally would like someone who is interested in legislation, diplomacy, consensus building, etc. become president than someone who is interested in delivering powerful speeches. People say that it's important for people to feel inspired, but what are they inspired to actually do besides vote for him? Clinton inspires me to learn more about government and find something specific that I can do even though it may be small and not so exciting.
