Stockton Record Endorses Obama: First Democrat in 72 Years

"Obama can inspire, and our nation desperately needs an inspirational leader. And he does not carry the deep scars of Vietnam, as do many of McCain's generation.

He offers hope. A new way of doing business. And a belief that our system of government can be made to work.

He's the clear choice."
-The Stockton Record

For the first time in 72 years, the Stockton Record has endorsed a Democratic Candidate for President. Not since Franklin Delano Roosevelt's second term, right after John McCain was born, has the Stockton Record endorsed a Democrat. Until now. And it was a unanimous decision by the editorial board.

Choice is clear: Obama for president
