Thanks for the insightful observations.<BR/>Of course, just the poem by the great Audre Lorde is enough to get my A+.<BR/><BR/>Yes, O has changed the whole paradigm. It will be impossible for the ignorant racists to make statements like "you know how they are" etc. The anecdotal evidence and simplistic bullshit just aint gonna cut it anymore.<BR/><BR/>I'm sitting here this evening feeling like it's Christmas Eve.<BR/><BR/>Tomorrow I vote and then I'm heading out to Cincy, Ohio to be with my son and wifey (she left to work the polls on Sat.). We will celebrate the victory together. . . .but I gotta tell you, I feel apprehensive at the same time. An Obama presidency is going to really fuck up the corpo-fascist's sandbox.<BR/>How low will they go?SagaciousHillbillyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09511441325695460501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7737268075572482842.post-64994018720850588242008-11-03T19:39:00.000-06:002008-11-03T19:39:00.000-06:00Anon:"Good to see other poems.

Off the top of my head, I can recall poems by the following poets: Seamus Heaney, Rita Dove, Margaret Walker, Gwendolyn Brooks, Paul Laurence Dunbar, Georgia Douglas Johnson, Nikki Giovanni, Wanda Coleman, James A. Emanel, and Lance Jeffers. If you missed any of these poets, just check my sidebar, in the poetry sub-section and you'll see for yourself.<BR/>christopher: you surely have reason to be anxious. But I think the numbers and the need for change are too overwhelming for Americans to resist.<BR/>rainywalker: Thank you, sir.Mac Daddy Tribute Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01483912561779369669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7737268075572482842.post-2938516621571081672008-11-03T17:09:00.000-06:002008-11-03T17:09:00.000-06:00daddyBstrong,Amazing commentary, all true!daddyBstrong,<BR/>Amazing commentary, all true!rainywalkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13445164335609548931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7737268075572482842.post-74319854884190394872008-11-03T16:15:00.000-06:002008-11-03T16:15:00.000-06:00I feel confident Obama will win.At the sametime, I...I feel confident Obama will win.<BR/><BR/>At the sametime, I can't forget the stolen elections of 2000 and 2004.<BR/><BR/>I've learned the hard way to never underestimate the evil of modern day conservatives, who will stop at nothing to hold onto power and the status quo.<BR/><BR/>Of course, this time, I think the Supreme Court knows they are risking their own lives if they insert themselves in the election process. And, Obama is no John Kerry, who wimped put and conceded the election a mere 18 hours after the polls closed in Ohio, despite reports of voter suppression in poor and predominantly African American areas of Cleveland.<BR/><BR/>I'm tired, and I'm glad the election will be decided tomorrow. I just got to wake up Wednesday morning to the words "President-elect Barack Obama."Christopherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15788931352232874850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7737268075572482842.post-82978127694697287782008-11-03T13:38:00.000-06:002008-11-03T13:38:00.000-06:00Mr. MacDaddy, I hope you're right about him becomi...Mr. MacDaddy, I hope you're right about him becoming president.
