Entro Mr. President -2/20/2009
So many differnet perceptions
So many different views, all of them, now worthy of news.
What the radicals haven't looked ahead to see is that soon everyone will be looking toward the same direction as "We the people" blend our colours as our goal now has to be, to become one.
When a country is as down as ours there is nowhere to look, but all around.
We as a nation have not only to look ahead, but look behind us because life is multifaceted and life is what we are looking toward making better.
Black radicals are yeahing, "We have a black president!"
White folks are saying, "Yeah, but he's part white, too so he has our best interest in mind as well!"
I truley doubt that Mr. President is going to go Rastafarian in the White House, or on the nation.
His is really just a man, and now there is no "us or them".
At this point he has the power and I believe he understands he is the deciding factor whether we go down in history or just go down as a country.
His is "The Resposibility", as ours is to back him because our country can no longer afford to live in a vacuum.
As a people, we all have a need: we "need to know",
" What is going on here?" "Where is all the money going?" "What has all the money been spent on?" and "What are you not saying to "We, the people?"
If we take a 'hit', we need to know "Why?" and "Who?", we all need to know Mr. President, not only you.
Only then as a nation will "United ring true".
Welcome Mr. Barack Obama; we want to trust you.
