Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama supporter and bed-and-breakfast owner Kelly Emery created a perfect mirror of the green sign people read as they enter the town's limits. Now people unfamiliar with the area may think they are entering the town of Obama, population: 55. [UPDATE: After complaints from locals, who said the sign was confusing, a county official persuaded Kelly Emery to remove the sign<http://www.marinij.com/marinnews/ci_10531714?source=rss>. You can learn more about the dispute in the CBS5 video below.] -- "Usually when people are sad, they don't do anything. They just cry over their condition. But when they get angry, they bring about a change." - Malcolm X, Malcolm X Speaks, 1965 --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Black Focus Inc." group.
