The hope that Obama is holding out for Americans is one of reconciliation – racial, political, between the wealthy and the poor, and between America and its allies. This is powerful stuff, and dwarfs the narrow technocratic instincts of Mrs. Clinton, whose schoolgirl approach to the campaign has justly earned her defeat after defeat in the primaries.
La esperanza que Obama está ofreciendo a los americanos es la de la reconciliación: racial, política, entre los ricos y los pobres y entre los americanos y sus aliados. Se trata de un material potente y deja pequeños los estrechos instintos tecnocráticos de la Sra. Clinton, cuyo planteamiento de la campaña, propia de una colegiala, le ha valido justamente derrota tras derrota en las primarias.
