Today it was announced that Senator Obama has now secured enough delegates to win his the Democratic National candidacy.  Senator Clinton, who has been running in opposition (and once considered the front runner candidate), says she will continue to campaign to gain negotiation power over certain issues during the convention.  Rumors are flying that she’s looking to pressure Obama into asking her to be his Vice Presidential running mate.

Whether Clinton really has such plans is yet to be seen.  However, for now the nation is soaking in this historic event wherein a person of color has been nominated to be the presidential candidate of one of the major parties.
