Let's Talk Accurately... While Obama fulfills the criteria for/of being black, he is not the "descendant... of slaves," or those Africans enslaved in the United States or western hemisphere.?
Cited in the paragraph entitled "Just Because He's Black" ...and now a descendent of those same slaves has a chance to lead the same country, where we weren't even considered to be people, ... J. Zellner ps Vote your hopes and for the person you want to be President, not simply for the one that the odds-makers say has the best chance to win. -----Original Message----- From: david hayden <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; ""african_american_ lists""@yahoogroups.com; ""african_american_ males_and_ females""@yahoogroups.com; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Malclom Allen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Latonya Ammona <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Cleo Anderson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Walter Applewaite <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Coretta Arbuckle <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; [email protected]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thu, 18 Sep 2008 9:42 pm Subject: Just Because He's Black Just Because He's Black A white man asked his black friend, 'Are you voting for Barack Obama just because he's black?' The black man responded by saying, 'Why not? Hell, in this country, men are pulled over everyday just cause they're black; passed over for promotions just cause they're black; considered to be criminals just cause they're black; and there are going to be thousands of you who won't be voting for him just because he's black! However, you do not seem to have a problem with that! This country was built with the sweat and whip off the black slaves' back, and now a descendent of those same slaves has a chance to lead the same country, where we weren't even considered to be people, where we weren't allowed to be educated, drink from the same water fountains, eat in the same restaurants, or even vote. So yes! I'm going to vote for him! But it's not just because he's black, but because he is hope, he is change, and he now allows me to understand when my grandson says that he wants to be president when he grows up, it is not a fairy tale but a short term goal. He now sees, understands and knows that he can achieve, withstand and do ANYTHING just because he's black!' Global Income Generators International (GIGI)??
