Will He Barack My World?


Today, Senator Barack Obama is speaking at Jackson State University. A small group of us plan to head on down there and hear him speak. I hope he will capture my imagination and excited me about the possibility of hope in politics. If you believe his hype, he breathes new hope into the country on every exhale and every inhale...

But which is it really - hype, or hope?

Follow up note: so many people went to see Obama that my friends and I didn't make it into the main stadium, OR the overflow building. I can't attest to Barack's charisma, but I can tell you he's pretty popular...

I hope it's not hype or hype alone--

I was impressed with his response re: race and his Reverend Wright.

First, I want to know why I just now get a notification from blogger.com about your new blog even though you posted on the 10th... stupid technology...

Second, I'm with you on the hype/hope thing. I'm not a distrustful person by nature, but I hear a lot of promises these days and I know they can't all be kept...
