Damn homie…do you really think Obama didn’t care about Sean Bell or anyone else getting shot 50 times??? What are You gonna do about??? Keep thinking the same ignorant ways and you will get the same bullshit results!!! We black folks are not the majority…if he helps America and you live here, don’t you think we all benefit? If this doesn’t inspire you, what is it gonna take?

Let’s stop biggin up loser’s like Game and lil wayne and start dreaming bigger!!! Clean up the hood, get our young a better education than we had…

Wow

I agree with both Mo and CURTISSSSS on “some levels” but at the end of the day, not just America, but the whole world is IN DESPERATE NEED for a major change.

I’m Canadian.

And as time evolves, one can witness how HORRIBLY the BUSH movement has run the U.S.A as a country, a nation and a force, straight into the ground.

I’m not big on politics but decided to watch his speech last night because I wanted to see what he TRULY is about. I dont wanna “read” about it, I dont wanna see it on the net, newspapers.

I wanna hear the words DIRECTLY from his mouth and his heart.

And last night, he was very eloquent and highly informative.

He seems to be a VERY intelligent individual who understands the issue.

But most importantly, he truly seems to care.

Again, some of you mentioned it, and Barack did so himself, he was not born into luxury, he was born into poverty.

So he understands the struggle.

I’m black, from Montreal Canada, and I’m anticipating change for not only my fellow Americans but also for the rest of the world.

Again, these changes that we are all yearning won’t be turned on instantaneously like a light switch, it takes time….

But he did the talk yesterday, and hopefully, ONCE (not IF) he OFFICIALLY gets elected, he WILL put those plans in motion accordingly and WALK THE TALK.

Like Sam Cooke said….

? CHANGE IS GONNA COME ?

Mo what change are you making but throwing your support behind someone who would care less if you got shot 50 times?

Maybe now black people wil laspire to be more than athletes or musicians. Obama is a great inspiration aswell.

Not saying I dont like sports or music

Co-sing #35 btw. Black people like to complain about their problems ALOT more than try to solve it. Obam transcends beyond black or white in my opinion, dude is great.

by the way typical black American complaining rather then getting up and making a change…smdh…in disgust.

We need to stop acting like is about black and white..is bigger than that..man..stop being so closed minded..it was about black and white back when Dr. King held his speech..at this point in time..is a different mind frame..is we have to united and make a change…our children…need to unite..their children and so forth..the mindset of us Americans have to evolve and change…not only Americans but people as a whole.
