Obama-crat!!!


Perhaps the most incredible thing about Barack Obama is not that he is an African-American man but that the impact that he has had on the world is as prominent as the Big Bang Theory. The future of our world, our government, our families, education, finances, our jobs and quite frankly our pursuit of happiness lies in this man. This man who is defying the laws of gravity in many ways than one. He stands for so much that should not be. For one, statistically he should not even be alive and if he was to be a living breathing person he was supposed to be spending his days making lampshades and keychains from a small concrete cell in prison somewhere. If not this dark existence he was to be the man who ran out on his beautiful, intelligent, well-educated (which is not be confused with well-educated because I assure you the two things are different) wife and wonderful daughters. He was to slip in to sleeping with whorish interns when he reached the level of senator a few years ago. He was to be eaten alive by the media and political competitors who would seek to diminish his good nature and honest desire to help a dying nation. He was to be utterly destroyed by the fact that he indeed has Faith in God even as a "liberal" candidate and that his spiritual advisor has ideas shared with so many people in our community but not reflective of his feelings as a man. The truth of the matter is that Barack Obama was not to even be a candidate...not in this lifetime...and he is! and not only is he a candidate but he is the preferred candidate. he has the opportunity to completely take the world by storm and do the unthinkable. I mean this is a country who once said Bill Clinton was the closest thing we would ever get to having a Black President...and here we are a few years and a demon of a president later, and we're not only flirting with the idea but we're in the bed doing the nasty with  that very thing. How crazy is that? And of course there could be a sense of pride in my country if we had simply appointed a half decent minority of any kind, of any level of expertise, but we have elected an African-American man who is just as if not more qualified to run our country than any man (or woman) of the Caucasian persuasion. And the truth of the matter is he stands for every man or woman who has ever felt like they didnt deserve to be where they were in their life...or that someone else thought they didnt deserve to be there or the odds were just stacked totally against them. Barack Obama is me, you, her, him, them. He is us! And I cannot wait to cast my vote for him in the first presidential election I have ever been able to vote in.
