In San Francisco

It's been three days so far in San Francisco as part of the programme funded by the US State Department, which covers visits to well-chosen states across the United States of America.
On Friday, the day was bazaar.
We started the day with very interesting meetings with experts and academicians at Stanford University, where we were familiarized with the candidates' likeability to become president. Discussions were so fruitful and informative. We had the chance to meet with Associate Professor of Political Sciences Kenneth A. Schultz from the world-renowned Stanford University.
Later, the meeting with Mr. Bill Whalen a Research Fellow at the Hoover Institution was really full of information that I needed to know, while going on with this programme. We had a frank and open discussion of candidates' programmes, campaigns, internal and foreign policies.
While at the campus, a small rally of students at the university campaigning for Democrat Illinois senator Barack Obama drew my attention.
It was a great chance to listen to young people's opinions on their best candidates and why they prefer one to another .It was a good occasion for making some friends as well.
