Barack is the Official Democratic candidate for President of the U.S.


Sometime this afternoon, delegates who traveled near and far cast their votes for the candidate who is poised to be the next President of the United States--Barack Obama.

For a little brown-skinned, big-eyed little girl, who has personally experienced racism in its various forms in Chicago, Illinois.
This was some of the happiest news and one of the happiest days of my life.
I'm proud to be an American!

Hillary Clinton is a "True Democrat"


What would you do if you knew that your political party was counting on you to ease the minds of some staunch supporters you have acquired and deliver them up to another candidate?

What would you do if you felt in your heart that you were the best possible candidate for a political office--in fact, the highest political office in America, but your party was more comfortable backing your opponent?

How would you respond if all of America's Democrats sat on the edge of their seats wonderin what you were gonna say in support of a candidate that you tried to defeat as 'unprepared' or "inexperienced?"

If you were Hillary Rodham Clinton you'd don your fly-est pantsuit, put on your brightest lipstick and stroll out on stage and deliver a helluva speech in support of Barack Obama. And, for the sake of the Democratic Party, you'd give the speech of your life.
Atta Girl!, Hillary
