The day of American 2th presidental debate
In the noon on October 8th, according to Beijingtime, I watched an arguement between Democrat Barack Obama and Republican John McCain on CNN, the two presidental candidates talked about the most momentous economic crisis in 80 years, and the American diploma polices, esp. for Iraq and Afghan. In my eye, the debate is not only drastic but peaceful. Although in China, such public dispute can be heard all through the country, people who have different political oppinions always gather together, esp. when dining, they talk about everything they want to talk, and no one can persuade the adversary successfully. Meanwhile, it's easy to find many normal persons who don't care about politics, they think they can do nothing to make the world change as their hope to be like. There is a traditional reason for this, in the past 2000 years, China is a feudalism society, there is only one emperor above the general public, and he owns everything in the country, the reason why the others have everything is because he give the things to them. And when the goverment became corruption and weak, the taxes on the citizens became to heavy to endure, they began to revolt, and when the war stopped, a new dynasty was established, a new emperor began to dominate the people, and the only hope those normal persons can have was the new emperor can be a merciful man, they seldom had any democrac concept, and these things happened again and again, through the whole Chinese history. I wish this circulation can end one day in the future, for China has already infuse into the world, the hope of democracy will be deeply rooted in everyone's mind, unless the tendency of globalization stop, and that will never happen.
