I don't think "Americans" are ready for an "African-American Male" President. I like Sen. Obama. I read his first book and like his charisma. However, he will split the Democratic vote and make John Edwards / Hillary Clinton take sides. And in the end, they are out for self (Presidential Campaigns cost $50M). We've now had African-Americans hold the 3rd most powerful political position in the country (Sec. of State) and what or where has that gotten us ? I encourage everyone to register to vote and be involved in the political process. However; don't let the majority pull the wool over your eyes through the information overload we receive on TV that constantly promotes "their" process. Please remember; we received OUR limited civil rights by ECONOMIC BOYCOTTS...... We must become ECONOMICALLY INDEPENDENT by establishing our own income streams aside from working on whatever plantation employs you ! By all means, get residual / entreprenuel income.....by any legal means neccessary !
