Today is History - A Change Has Come - Barack Obama for President
Words can not express how I felt when Barack Obama officially became the first Black American to get the Democratic presidential nomination. Today we are living history.
R-E-V-O-L-U-T-I-O-N (Time to Change)
By Shelia M. Goss
Revolution started many years ago on the back of the broken-hearted, resulting from
Evil men’s egos who thought it was okay to enslave the mind and
Violate the body and whoever was against it were either maimed or killed
Only the strong survived. Now here we are in a new day and time, some of us
Living the dream that King talked about, we can not live our life recklessly, leaving the memory of our ancestors behind.
United we must stand, because history shows how far divided we can fall.
Too many people fought and died for the things we now enjoy.
Instead of complaining, be thankful and be ready for action when injustice surfaces.
Oppressed? Distressed? Then take the time to think of some solutions. This
November – Take a Stand and Vote for the right man - Barack Obama for President!!!
Let’s celebrate this moment in history together and make more history together in November.

Angelia, I was watching it with my mom when Hillary passed the motion and it was made official. To share the moment with my mom was monumental to me too.
its party time FOR REAL ROR REAL
Monumental. He dared to dream and now he is one step away from the ultimate prize. I hope he inspires others, especially younger generations of minorities, to reach for the stars and if they don’t reach the stars, hopefully they land on the moon or the highest peak. Success breeds success and seeing someone who looks like you smash the glass ceiling should be inspiration to all us people of color!
The Comeback Girl - I don’t care what anybody says today, they won’t steal my joy. High-five sister
John I plan on calling all my nephews to make sure their parents have them watch his speech tonight. I know it’s a school night but its worth them staying up late just once.
You got me over here dancing in my office, with my speakers blasting…lol. It’s a good thing I work off in the cut by myself.
LOL Teacia–”Ain’t no party like an internet party–’cause an internet party don’t stop.”
“The Comeback Girl - I don’t care what anybody says today, they won’t steal my joy. High-five sister ”
thats right…not even the NBRA (national black rebublican association) how and the hell did I end up on their mailing list for ONE vote for Michael Steele I don’t know. But they need to stop it. Martin Luther King may have been a (R) but he dang sure would be voting for Barak.
meant Barack….
When Obama is elected President that will be a BIG CELEBRATION!
