See all 28 CommentsThe message of "Hope" is a much better message than the message of fear, hate and negativity that is the GOP and their mean spirited followers.
Obama will be a great President. He has quite a job to do cleaning up the mess of the bush regime with all of it''s corruption, greed and blame on everyone but themselves. There is a God after all.
It is sad to see a con job from start to finish, especially with what appears to be nice, and nicely dressed people in the midst and movement of all this dishonesty.
In a word: Character.
The speech Obama gave on race where he explained that while he could not condone his statements he simultaneoudly could not reject his pastor resonated as truth for me. We''ve all encountered older people who are stuck in the past and every once in a while, when something monumental happens, for example O.J.''s acquittal for whites and Rodney King for blacks, their opinions, while seeming archaic today, are realized to be what they are: a result of their past experiences and the time they are from. Although it is rare (at least for me) to ever hear racism and hatred from other white people, there of course have been instances where I''ve heard them, particularly from older people at certain times of anger.
So....what he said about his pastor made sense to me. I just wish more politicians would just be as honest as President-elect Obama and speak from the heart. Most people know the truth and understand it when they hear it. And that helped him win.
Signed,
The politically Independent, middle-aged, white woman that McCain wanted and could not get ;)
Respectfully Submitted,
