"Cornel Talks About Obama"
Watch
http://newsone.blackplanet.com/nation/excl... This brother Dr. West is deeper than the Matrix trilogy. In fact, I listened to his commentary there also.
It is huge for Obama to win this country's nomination. Here in Houston the statement is pretty big for local votes and nationwide Democratic votes. People are showing that they want change.
I admit that I hadn't followed the lack of Rev. King's name in the acceptance speech and I can't say that I even know why. I do know that they struggle of African Americans hasn't been much of an issue specifically. Specifically, I'm not sure if it should be. However, I feel that there should be the utmost concern of all working class individuals and others below the line. When it comes to Americans living in poverty, it's not about color anymore. It is about survival. I believe when all "minority" people are upheld then Rev. King's ideals, along with the Civil Rights Movement, are being upheld. Not only would President Obama benefit from revisiting the importance of that movement, our people will benefit from it. Pull your pants up, at least, when applying for a small business loan (I'd prefer all times). Stop giving people reason to FEAR you. Respect someone other than yourself and NuNu. These are hard times in which everyone is affected. Even Billionaire T. Boone Pickens has been hit hard. His losses are more than many Americans will see over the span of their bank accounts.
On another note, I pray that President Obama gets the protection that he needs. I don't think that our government should take it lightly at all. As a matter of fact, I believe that they should go out of their way to bulk up security for the 1st family at this time. I can't help but think that someone wants to be a fool of this entire presidential matter. Overstood?
Don't just Barack the Vote, turn it all the way over!
