Hope = Obama


Hey all. Things are good. Hot and muggy - sorry for all of you freezing your asses off. The pic is for my Dad, St. Joesph Church (didn't go in though..........)



Everyone here is crazy for Obama. The hopes and dreams that his presidency will help this country and others and make the world a better place are everywhere. They have been playing songs that were written for him. Very Cool. I don't know if they feel the struggle that African-Americans have endured but I get the feeling they are struggling to get of their own segregation of poverty here. My driver wants to come to America and go to school for business. He was quizzing the hell out of me today on cities in America that are good for work. I hated to say that we are struggling too, but I am a realist and that is what I said. I did tell him that in order to make it in America, or the easiest way, is to get an education.





I hope, along with everyone else, that Obama can change the way things are and that Countries like Tanzania will get out of the "Third World Country" label.





History is in the making. Lets enjoy.


Lovya all
