From Martin Luther King Jr. to Malcolm X, blacks have always fought for their freedom and rights. Martin Luther King Jr. did have a dream and it is coming to reality. Who would have thought a few years ago that a black man, a white woman, and a very old man would be running for office? As the great Bob Dylan sang, “The times they are a-changin.” People always say as kids that they want to become the next president. Do you think that baby Barack was saying that during the 60s when segregation was still an occurrence?When the first black person saw that there might be a chance that the next President of the United States will might be an African American, there was a celebration. I can sit here and tell you all the good things that Obama has proposed and mention how well put together the man is but that’s not what us African Americans care about. All of that is a plus. We just want to see a black person become president. Blacks that didn’t vote in the past are now voting and trying to get their kids to vote and you know who they are voting for? Not McCain and Palin but the man that they think can revolutionize the African American society, take us out this recession, and change the world.
Vote or Die- or realize that we could have missed our chance in having a black president. This is why #17 on Stuff Black People Like is the idea of Barack Obama.
