batton down the hatches! Posted on May 19th
Starting today, Monday the 19th, there will be a change of pace in US politics. Probably not a big one, but certainly one that we are not use to here.
The United Nations will be sending an independent inspector to decide if there is racism within the US system. Why now? Because Obama is mathematically the Presumptive Democratic Nominee, and whenever a person of color attains a national leadership office, the UN inspects that nation.
So what will the inspector find? Well, thank God he won’t be traveling to West Virginia, or else we’d certainly fail the test.
But outside of that hickish lovely state, what will the inspector find? Well… he’ll probably find nothing. But lets face it there is racism, and it’s on both sides. For every white supremacist voter who refuses to give Obama the time of day, there is likely a black voter who is voting for Obama solely because he is black. I’ll probably get some flack for that statement, but come on, it’s true.
So what do we do? Well… you can’t really change a bigots mind unless their mind is open to it, and fighting them does nothing but give them more press coverage, so, you should vote for your candidate and be willing to discuss your voting decision with the open minded. So, get out there a vote (Obama) in November.
