Barack Obama's speech on Race and politics reveals him as the only true agent of change in the 2008 Presidential election and reinforces his well deserved image as a sorely needed uniter for a disillusioned and badly divided American electorate: Allen L Roland Barack Obama just finished a major speech on race in America and building a more perfect union. His theme was that we cannot solve the challenges of our time unless we solve them together and that for blacks ~ " memories of humiliation and doubt and fear have never gone away but that similar anger also exists within segments of the white community." As I watched his brilliant 38 minute speech ~ I saw a person for his time, I saw a man of quiet inner integrity and courage, a man who would command instant respect on the world stage, I saw a breath of fresh air in a corrupted and poisoned political system, I saw a president who could morally lift America out of the gutter ~ where the Cheney/Bush administration has led us and I saw and felt hope for a better America. You should see it or read it for yourself. Here's the video and full text: http://my.barackobama.com/hisownwords Please forward this message to everyone you know.
