The cartoon reflects a good thought for minority children wondering about their own future. When a black man, even one who is half white, can stand before America and take the oath of office, it makes it attainable despite color. I heard a nine year old girl at the inauguration say she hopes she can one day come and watch a woman take the oath of office. It’s a positive idea no matter what one might think of the candidate in the picture, and I’m grateful for positive ideas.Respectfully,C.
None of the right-wing rants here about Obama contain any facts. I was here in 2008. Obama did a boat-load of good, and thank GOD that neither McCain or Romney, with their vast deficit spending plans, got elected.
Abernathy, Evers, and a feisty little lady on a bus, others at a Woolworth’s lunch counter, Jackie Robinson, so many who by resistance, not guns, or TEA false “history”, changed history through NON – violence on their part.
I really didn’t, and still don’t, think MLK deserves all the adoration, though he was a leader, with a voice, and message all needed to hear. The saddest part of his legacy is the family he left behind, but hey, there was Prescott Bush ahead of him on that count.
