This election has been interesting and in a few days it will be over. This race is tightening and we will have a new President soon.
I have been listening to Fox News in one ear and another morning show on 94.5 in another and Both views had me sitting on the fence concerning the Election. One side shows me the radical and untrustworthy views of Obama and the other side shows me the beauty of having change in the White House. This is History. Everyone knows that. Barack Obama has done what Jesse Jackson couldnt.
But the Sunday before last i went to church and my pastor made a statement and he said that To vote for someone because of their skin color and to NOT vote for someone because of their skin color is racist. It seemed that he was looking at me when he said that and it hit me like a ton of bricks. Just last night i had a conversation with a fellow blogger and he made me realize some things.
Even though my children are bi-racial i want them to be proud of their Black heritage BUT i dont want them to vote for someone simply because he is black and on the contrary, I want them to be proud of their White heritage as well but I dont want them to vote for a person because they are White either. It starts with me! You have vote on morals and values and vote on who is right for the future NOT who is right for RIGHT NOW!!
I have made my decision and i am proud of my decision. Hopefully this candidate will come through and back up what he is proposing. but you have to look at record and when you do chose the person who is more truthful and the one who is more than likely to follow up on his promises!!
What a shock!!! HOW OUTRAGEOUS!! This cant be happening..
but relax folks I am only kidding.. LOL but that would be so funny if Obama stepped on stage and made that statement. Imagine the outrage!! LOL there will be rioting in the streets. LOL then he says; Just kidding..
LOL
