I have been watching the convention. Michelle gave a great speech and i think her and barack would be great dinner partners. I love to argue politics and i suspect we would disagree alot but i like the family especially those gorgeous kids. There are few republicans i would like to go to dinner with Ten. They seem to be all rich white guys with tudes like inode. But my views dovetail theirs on many issues, particularly economic.
I dont know if anyone else heard this in Michelle's speech--the number of times she mentioned how she and hubby could have had those wall street jobs but chose community service. Now thats noble for sure but i find it just as untoward to dwell on it as i do mccains refuting the 8 house charge with tales of the hanoi hilton experience--something he once said he would never do. Anyway getting back to community service and disdaining wall street jobs, what does that tell the mass of americans who work for pay and make the opposite choice of the obamas. Are we somehow evil? Well that was the implication i heard and i dont like it one bit. Why is a black kid told to do public service, teach, nurse, etc? What the fuck is wrong with creating wealth and thus jobs? Black americans have been captives of the govt bureacracy for so long in terms of benefits and employment. Maybe it would have been better if one of the obamas sought to make some money and encouraged black men to make money in business.
