Well, I've been for Obama all the way from the start. I grew up in the Kennedy era, and we lost many good men, especially Dr. King, and Robert Kennedy, and they have not been replaced by someone of hope until Obama walked on the scene. However, I have been pondering over the fact that if there is so much danger to Obama and his family if he makes it as far as the Presidency, and Hillary is so determined to have her way, then let's vote her in, live thru it, and prime Obama for the next 4 years. I read the Black Blogs, and I;m so tired of the rascism (from the non-Black writers) that their ignorance toward Obama's family is terrifying. Just so we keep the republicans out of the Leadership! Anyone else have any input on this?
