The World Knows Who Should be President
It was chilling to hear Hillary say, from New Hampshire to Texas, words that she borrowed without giving credit, even while she accused Obama of plagiarizing words given by his co-chair. In several speeches she said that”a politician looks to the next election, but a statesman is concerned about the next generation." These words are not her own. She was quoting without giving the credit; nevertheless, these words are true. And now, the world knows that Hillary is the politician who is only concerned about getting elected, while Obama is the statesman who is concerned about the country and the next generation. Obama’s speech demonstrates that he stands above the common and deserves to be the one who leads this troubled nation.
It is interesting that the female analysts on TV do not mention that Obama’s mother was a White woman. They systematically deny that he is half-white; and by doing so they destroy U. S. History and denigrate everything the House of Burgesses in Virginia did in 1662. For it was in that year that Virginia passed a law, which said that all the children of a Black woman was born a slave for life, but all the children of a White woman was born free. The implication changed International Law. Children were automatically classified by the nationality and condition of their father in the 17th century, but America changed that and declared that a child took on the status and condition of its mother. Thus, Obama’s condition by law should be discussed and referenced by his “whiteness” not his “blackness.”
What this is all about really, is that those White Americans who berate Obama’s so-called race, and denigrate his association with the Rev. Dr. Wright, are the ones who refuse to face the fact that America did wrong during slavery, and that the Constitution was not written to grant “equality” to blacks. In fact, women were not considered “equal” in 1787, and even now, the good ole’ boys refuse to pass the ERA Amendment.
Barack Obama’s speech demonstrates that he is one who would push for the passing of ERA and grant American women equal rights by law, just as he would push for legislation granting equal rights to Blacks, Hispanics, Asians, and Latinos. Indeed, the world now knows who should be President, because the man at the podium was not pleading for votes, but standing up for Truth and Righteousness, which is a characteristic suggested by his first name-“Barack, Hebrew for Blessed!”
For What it’s Worth . . .
