There is a great clip of Jeremiah Wright on YouTube that reveals just how far Wright's views of America are from Obama's.
As I listened to Wright, I found myself thinking what a safer world we would live in if the next POTUS was as opposed to war and violence as Jeremiah Wright. Unfotunately, that will not happen. the next POTUS will be Obama, Hilllary, or McCain. And, all three of them have, frequently and strongly, expressed their commitment to continuing America's misguided, racist, war on terror.

Good afternoon, my good brother...
But what we need to face up to is how others fall for what our peoples enemies say while their deeds we're very aware of by now...
Has the agenda from Columbus 'discovery' (invasion) of these continents to Bush Junior's' 'liberation' of Iraq changed much?
Not really!
One individual's ambition--regardless of their ethnic or racial background--matters not or little in relationship to that...
The flip side:
Both the late Shirley Chisolm and Brother Jesse Jackson were a wee bit more for real about it than Obama even comes close to...
The illusions is things could be business (or politics) as usual since those 9/11/01 attacks...
The reality is Osama Bin Laden operates not only as his minions did but maybe things are worse than they were...
Add to that:
How the enslavement of our african ancestors preceded how white folks got in it just to advance their own petty and/or self serving interests...
Never mind the fragile egos of their minions:
Ditto like those fictional capo of that legendary movie of the seventies put it candidly and honestly?
"It's not (really) personal: It's (just) business..."
For some it's about the need:
For others it's about the greed...
Though let our struggles based on a recover of our peoples rightful place as equals among the world's humanity go on anyhow...
FYI...
Later...
