TEXT OF OBAMA'S SPEECH TO AIPAC TODAY

I first became familiar with the story of Israel when I was eleven years old. I learned of the long journey and steady determination of the Jewish people to preserve their identity through faith, family and culture. Year after year, century after century, Jews carried on their traditions, and their dream of a homeland, in the face of impossible odds. The story made a powerful impression on me. I had grown up without a sense of roots. My father was black, he was from Kenya, and he left us when I... Sign in to see full entry.

Team Clinton Doesn't Miss A Chance to Remind Us 'He's Black'

Google the phrase “Clinton firewall” and you will come up with an ever-lengthening list of scenarios that Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign has said will stop Barack Obama’s candidacy. The New Hampshire primary, said her campaign, would be the firewall to end Obamamania. Then Super Tuesday was supposed to be the firewall. Then Texas.

Hillary's Econmic Recovery Plan for Housing Castigated by the WSJ

I recommend thois article to everyone, as a simple explanation as why her proposals do not deserve merit, and a brief history of: 1. What the Japanese government actually did to lengthen their banking "zombie" phase; 2. What one head of a failed savings and loan did in America during the '80's, that did work to help establish a "bottom" from which the... Sign in to see full entry.

Barack Obama's Complete Speech on Rev. Wright...

“We the people, in order to form a more perfect union.” Two hundred and twenty one years ago, in a hall that still stands across the street, a group of men gathered and, with these simple words, launched America’s improbable experiment in democracy. Farmers and scholars; statesmen and patriots who had traveled across an ocean to escape tyranny and persecution finally made real their declaration of independence at a Philadelphia convention that lasted through the spring of 1787. The document they... Sign in to see full entry.

Bob Geldorf

The Most Powerful Man in the World studied the front cover. Geldof in Africa — " 'The international best seller.' You write that bit yourself?" "That's right. It's called marketing. Something you obviously have no clue about or else I wouldn't have to be here telling people your Africa story." It is some story. And I have always wondered why it was never told properly to the American people, who were paying for it. It was, for example, Bush who initiated the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS...

Obama crowds of late are breathtakingly large, enthusiastic. The candidate is often speaking to a massive overflow crowd of people from a bullhorn. The standard crowd size now numbers in the several thousands. Covering him, it almost feels like that magically unreal time in the few days leading up to his Iowa win and when he road that victory into New Hampshire. The candidate was swept up in an air of inevitability, generating a palpable buzz that even thrilled the reporters who reported on him... Sign in to see full entry.
