It seems that after the Jeremiah Wright trouble, the media seems to want to find everything thing wrong that they can with Senator Obama. Can a person truly not go into politics with a blank slate as well as a positive background. Not saying that Obama is a blank slate, he has apparently been involved long enough to become a US Senator. Now The issues with Jeremiah Wright almost cost Obama the presidential race. All this hullabaloo about a few sound bites that are more than a 5 years old, that were taken completely out of context. Truthfully a person would have to listen to the entire sermon in order to understand why the reverend said what he said. To take the clips as the entire face value of what the reverend said is baloney.
Now on to the second issue Michelle Obama. If you don't know the womans name by now look it up. I'm pretty suer there are only a few Obama families around. Now her wuote may have been something along the words that she is finally able to say that she is proud to be an American. WOW. Big whoop right. Well so the white people this is an insult to the great nation that they built of the Blood, Sweat, and Tears of Black and Indians or can we refer to them as hyphenated Americans African Americans and Native Americans. Even with all that bad blood between people there is still the feelings that people can't truly understand what it means to be American. You want to know why? Well a huge percentage of people immigrate to the United States because there are looking to live the so-called "American Dream" but the people living here in poverty and barely able to make ends meet, can't even live the "American Dream" can anyone see the problem in that? So now the media is trying to spin the words of a woman because she just happens to be married to a presidential candidate. Yes the eyes are on her like an eagle. But I'm sure millions of people feel the same way just think back to Vietnam or any other time when the people of the United States weren't so proud of their country. Get over it we live in a time now in which United State citizens can be killed for being United States citizens, this is why people maintain dual citizenships so as to get such terrors. I'm sometimes proud to be an American. So there I said it. It has taken me a long learning process. One in which mixed raced peoples and minorities were once hated to group up in a country in which I don't have to worry so much about stepping on land mines or being bombed in the middle of the night. It is for those reasons that I'm glad I'm on the American side of things because I will be able to live in a land that claims to be the land of the 'free.' Can I be truly proud to be of a people that mistreat their most impoverished and where animals have more rights that minority people's. For that I can say I'm only a Fair-weather American. I can only be proud when it benefits me and so far I have yet to reap and benefits in a country which my ancestors and I have sewn out Blood, Sweat, and Tears.
"The only thing to fear is fear itself." Whites fear blacks coming into power so much that they are willing to make up anything about the Obama's in order to make sure that he does not become the Commander in Chief of the White United States of America. Scared people to scary things in order to keep certain things from happening. The Obama's are the power couple that actually reflects the meaning of true family and American values. What makes them so scary is they haven't broken any laws unlike some of our former presidents. The are the force to be reckoned with and the force to make the necessary changes that all Americans need in order to follow in that pursuit of happiness.
So Yes, "Lay off his wife"
