This older white guy asked his older black friend, 'Are you voting forBarack Obama just because he's black'? So the older black guy fires back and says, 'Are you not voting for himbecause he's black? Why can't I vote for him just cause he's black? Hell in this country men are pulled over everyday just cause theirblack, passed over for promotions just cause their black, considered tobe criminals just cause their black, but you don't seem to have aproblem with that. This country was built with the sweat and whip off the slaves back, andnow a descendent of those same slaves has a chance to lead the samecountry where we weren't even considered to be people. A country wherewe weren't allowed to be educated, drink from the same water fountains,eat in the same restaurants, or even vote, so you damn right I'm goingto vote for him! But not just because he's black. But because he is hope, he is change, and he now allows me to understandwhen my grandson says he wants to be president when he grows up, it isnot a fairy tale but a short term goal. Now he sees, understand, andknows, he can achieve, withstand, and do anything just because he'sblack!
