As Barack Obama said today, "Enough"; it’s time to put this baby to bed and get on with the people’s business.
Barack Obama has shown us today the way in which he will negotiate and handle problems during his presidency. He will first give you the benefit of the doubt and accept what you say or promise to do. He will push hard for your cause and try to convince folks it’s the right thing to do or accept; but if you cross the line one too many times, by lying, stealing or by abusing your powers, he will indeed -- stop you like a freight train.
Barack Obama stood by his man; some would say too long, some will say not long enough. Obama could have walked away a month ago but chose instead to stick with his pastor, Reverend Wright. Obama used the man’s plight or anguish to try and make a better person out of the rest of us by speaking to racism that still exists in America, both from white and black Americans.
The Reverend decided that Vengeance is MINE, saith HE! After being on television off and on for 48 hours and saying nothing but things that remind us of our past sins and forgetting the progress that has been made since those times – the Reverend put himself above the rest of America.
At today’s press conference, Barack Obama, I believe our next President of these United States, stood at the podium and denounced the pastor’s words and the man. One could see that he was hurting and at the same time angry and disappointed in his pastor. Even while disowning him, Barack mentioned that he continues to understand where the Reverend was coming from with his words – but he just could no longer accept the hate that he was pushing yesterday. "That’s not what I’m about", he said.
It’s time to move on my fellow Americans. This whole Democratic nominee process has gone on way too long. Let’s end this whole mess and get on with the people’s business – Finally --- PLEASE.
I am begging the super delegates to support Barack Obama for President. He’s won the delegates, the popular votes, 30 contests out of 45 and he’s drawn more new voters than in any other time in our history. He’s worked very hard to get where he is today. He took on the Democratic machine of the Clintons and the Party establishment and has WON.
Give him his due!
