Historic Day.

On August 28th 1963, Martin Luther King Jr. was giving his "I Have A Dream" speech. On the same day 45 years later, Senator Barack Obama will be giving his acceptance speech for the nomination of Presidency. Great day in American history whether you like him or not, I think we both can agree that America has come along way in a good direction. I mean seriously, how many people who grew up back then can say that they could have thought something like this was going to ever happen. I of course did not live around that time, but I think that if I did I would've thought you were crazy if you said something like this would happen. If he wins or not, still an historic milestone. I am glad that America has changed a lot since then, hate is still around but certainly we have took a step forward since then and that is something I am proud of.

Jessee was jealous of Dr King and now jealous of Obama, he really moves back while claiming to move forward.

But he(J.J.) was a mover and shaker in your party just a few years ago. Now he's been kicked to the curb. Why is that?

Truthfully, only history can and will decide what is historic, based on the future events of a present decision. True, he's the first half-black to ever run for president (as far as genetics has/can confirm). Something being historic isn't determined by the present people. In all probability, it will be historic in that he is the first Muslim sympathisizer (if not a blatant Muslim and Marxist) to ever receive the bid for presidency. Only time will tell how history remembers him - and if his ilk are still in power, I'm sure it will be a happy historical remembrance. At least, for the unknowing, unthinking masses! But some of us will always know, and we'll pass the truth along to our heirs, and...you know the story - it's history!
