If you had a vote in the US election who would you vote for?

Halleluya,...contrary to what kent777 is saying i feel more motivated as a black person never to use my skin to limit me from taking opportunities in life!

I take it you didn't read his further posts, or did you only read the ones you wanted to?
He has quoted Nola and gave his opinion of Obama, which is the same.

In respect of the race issue, I think it is worth remembering that when Barack Obama was born, African Americans didn't have the right to vote. He has risen to the highest polictical office in his country within 50 years of the civil rights struggle.
I write this as a white person who has lived in the American South and who has spent many years studying the history and politics of America and, in particular, slavery and its impact.
It is historic. It is momentous. And it is incredibly moving. For a people who had for so long been disenfranchised, this election will prove an inspiration.
I received a text message from a friend of mine in Louisiana and then funnily enough I got two more copies of the same message from friends in this country.
It read:
Evers, the first martyr, gave us fortitude.
Rosa sat so Martin could march.
Martin marched so Obama could run.
Obama won so our children can fly.
It moved me to tears when I received it within hours of the result being announced.
Google Medgar Evers, Rosa Parks. Look at the dates of when they were making their lasting impact on the civil rights struggle. Think about MLK and when he was standing on the steps telling the world about his dream.
Then think about the impact it has on people who previously always wondered about the unspoken institutionalised glass ceiling that many feared still existed despite gaining voting and other civil rights only 40-something years ago.
It does mean a lot to people and the significance of having a black First Family in the White House is hugely symbolic.
There are parents who really are now saying with real conviction to their children, "You can do it! You can fly."
And from a personal perspective, I'm just pleased that the man can string a sentence together and deliver a speech - much easier on the ear! wink
Nola x

Since he agreed with Nola are you saying he said the same as Nola or something different?
You have confused the heck out of me

Of course there is:

For some reason known only to himself, he has gone from slating what I said, to blaming it on poor English. dunno
There is a insinuation in his words somewhere, and I asked him to clarify his words. For I cannot understand what he was/is implying. Maybe he has got a bit confused and if so I will always reclarify my thoughts if he cannot grasp the ones I have already said.
Any part of what I have said you do not understand, then ask again Phuckers please. rolleyes
