Today, everyone was quiet. Though I had on my MP-3 player, I still noticed the silence. At work, people who are normally loud, didn't have anything to say. On the bus, there was calm. Perhaps, people were anticipating what would be said tonight. They were preparing themselves for what would be a historic evening. The first Black person to accept the nomination of a major party, to become President of the United States of America. WOW!!! I never thought I would say that.
The Invesco stadium in Denver looked like Mecca, the only difference was that people were not walking around the Kaba. But the lights in the stadium, the over eighty thousand people, if they could, looked like the pilgrims at Mecca. Getting ready to kiss the Black stone. Barack is this nation's Black stone, and people, White,Black, Asian, and Native people in America, all joined as one , to kiss the stone. Our Black rock, Barack. Watching him, is our Diamond,Joe Biden. Both stones, Barack, the Black stone, like the one at Mecca, we do not know it's origin, but everyone is attracted to it. Biden, the White stone, diamond, rare, the hardest stone or mineral, but again, everyone is attracted to it.
There has been a lot said about the so called catch phrases of Obama. Change and hope. Let's see what Webster had to say about these words.
Change- 1.to make different in form
2.to transform
3.to exchange for another or others
9.to become different " The nation's mood has changed."
Hope- 1.the feeling that what is wanted can be had, or events will turn out well
4.a person or thing in which expectations are centered
6. to look forward to with desire and reasonable confidence
7. to believe, desire , trust
8.to feel that something desired may happen.
Yes, my friends, it is my belief that Barack Obama will be our next President.
WE DO NEED CHANGE, AND I HAVE HOPE THAT CHANGE IS GOING TO COME!!
More later ,PEACE!!!
Just thoughts coming off the top of my head that might make you look at things in a different perspective

Yes, We Can Can, With Obama and Biden !
I woke up yesterday morning with a wonderful present from two men that I am not even married to.Barack Obama announced that he was choosing Sen. Joe Biden as his running mate
in the presidential election! This was a brilliant move and also a very wise one. I must admit, Biden was not even on my mind as a choice, but when I heard the announcement, it made perfect sense.
I have been a fan of Biden for many years, and have always been captivated by his speeches on the Senate floor. He is an advocate of women's rights and protection for women victims of violence.The wealth of knowledge he has in foreign affairs is almost unmatched by anyone in Congress, so that should quiet everyone who is in doubt about Obama.Biden is not a person who will disappear in the woodworks, he will be there, front and center, helping to shape this country into its place where it should be. We have used the term "Greatest Country on Earth" too freely,
without making it so. Without truly believing it . This country can go two ways. The way of Ninevah, or Sodom and Gomorrah. With the deviation this country has in its relationship with God,morals, culture, children,women,and the elderly, we need a change with substance, leadership with integrity and realistic solutions, and belief that we can change for the better.
My prayers are with Obama and Biden. I pray that the forces of evil do not spring up to do something Satanic, and force God to have to deal with this country the way He did other nations in the past that did not do His will, and treat His people with justice, equity, and love.
