If we don’t end war, war will end us.

 Everyday is Earthday.

Obama will be a great president no matter what color he might be. I think that by electing Obama people will begin to break their racist views and instead start to see that he will do a better job then those previous to him. I hope that this change will actually allow people to see beyond his color and see him for his ability to be president.

I hope Obama will be a great President.

There's a lot of rage and frustration in this country, and some people will never get over blaming their personal problems on other people.

 Two thumbs up to motherearth!

      I find it interesting, and rather sad that people still have to put a labels on a person's race. He is simply a member of the Human Race, and I believe him to be an honorable one. I think that if he can break through the bs in politics that he could help to make great, positive changes that our country desperately needs.

    Now that Obama is the President-elect, this country will turn out to be a progressive country.  He will send all teenagers to college and in 4 years this country will have a lot of educated and professional people.  They will not be asking for financial aid because they will have good jobs.

    I hope that Obama will be able to give jobs to all the jobless people so they will be off the welfare system.  I will believe that he kept his promise for change if the number of people who are now dependent on the government will go down in number.

To start with his dad was from Africa and his mother was white. All they are seeing is the color of his skin and not his true culture. He was drinking tea with granny instead of dodging bullets in the slum. He will cause more racial division like no one else in history.

With all due respect he put a label on himself!

He calls himself a black man when in fact he is bi-racial.

I think none of us should ever forget from whence we came!!
