I am both excited and apprehensive about this coming Tuesday. Excited because a man of color may be elected President. Apprehensive because I know how white folks can be. Just look at 2000. But I'm going to remain cautiously optimistic and trust that there are enough young and unbiased white folks and ALL black folks will vote for Barack Obama.
I know that there are a lot of white folks that will not vote for him no matter what, even if their life depended on it. I also know that there are a few black folks that will not vote for him either. These are the people that I would really like to meet and ask WHY. I already know where those white folks stand but these black folks I do not have a clue as to where their mind is at.
But alas it's in the hands of the Good Lord or fate or Karma, whatever you wish to believe in. But I will be watching Tuesday with bated breath, wringing hands and cold sweats.
PEACE.LOVE.HAPPINESS
