CALM DOWN PEOPLE. I GOT THIS.
by Malik Isasis
Dear President Barack Obama:
You have your work cutout for you. Georgie Porgie has left one fine mess. President Obama there must be no Clintonesque triangulation of your base for the appeasement of the corporate media and Republicans. Keep the Democratic Party from splintering like wood, for they are incorrigible, and Mr. President keep the Republican Party marginalized and fractured, they mean the country no good.
Mr. President, in 2003 I attended a lecture by Princeton Professor, Cornell West. West said something profound. He said that we no longer have leaders who would die for us. Leaders like Martin Luther King, Jr., Ghandi, Malcom X, Nelson Mandela, and Mother Teresa--leaders who would not only die for their cause, but would die for their people. These people Mr. President are an example of leaders who were able to transcend to the next level of consciousness, the enlighten state of consciousness. Today our leaders lack sacrifice, they much prefer that others sacrifice for their political gain. It is personal gain over political responsibility.
So in the words of Ghandi, Mr. President Obama, be the change that you want to see in the world.
Sincerely,
Malik

nice "dear obama" letter, i really think that for things to change, one has to set an example for that kind of change. he has so many plans such as the gitmo thing and the bailout plan, i think he could really turn these plans into reality and he's starting to show the kind of change we all need
Imee,
Obama has certainly brought much needed change...I'm worried about his foreign diplomacy between Israel and the Occupied Territories...very little has changed in that department.
