Hello all, it's Keir again.
I know on the last post, I had talked about Barack Obama being the democratic nominee for President. While what I want to discuss is still Obama, it's less optimistic on my part.
I'm sure you've all heard about Jesse Jackson's recent crude remarks about Obama. If not, you can read about it here.
I don't think this is going to have a big effect on his campaign, or the division or unity of the democratic party itself, but I think that as the minority, Blacks need to stick together and support each other. Whether Jackson said what he said out of jealousy, or personal dislike, or whatever reason it may be, it was inappropriate and unneccessary. And as such an important historical figure, he should be setting a better example.
That's all I have to say. What do you think?
