Now we know the answer to my last blog…
OBAMA WON!

The Good Cops are back in the driver’s seat. Let’s hope they can take us back to Normal City, because we’ve been too long on Mars, or Crazytown. The Bad Cops did a number on the world and it’s gonna take everything we’ve got to pull ourselves out of this nightmare.

It’s still scary stuff…you know, like when they stole every single diamond out of South Africa, and then gave it back to the Native South Africans? You can’t help but wonder if stealing billions and trillions and then saying, okay, now you Black people can be in charge — but there’s nothing left..so good luck.

It doesn’t matter. If they took it all, it doesn’t matter. We, the people, will rise to the occasion and we will make things better than ever. We’ll find a way. We overcame Slavery. We survived the Great Depression and two World Wars, and Viet Nam. So…

Congratulations President Elect Obama! Our prayers go out to you and your family. And here’s one now:

Heavenly Creator…Bless our new leader, his health, his mind, his will and his spirit. Let him know your purpose and plan and follow the way of righteousness. Bless his choices for a Cabinet, that they will be wise and compassionate, fearless and brave. Bless Congress to fulfill their promises to this nation to the best of their abilities. Ease our fears and the damage done in the past eight years. Let us forget the past and press on towards the race before us. Help all United States citizens evolve into patient, unjudging people, and be ready to stand up and do the things we need to do to help our leaders make good choices.

Heal our nation, Bless our world, and guide us to a bright and better future. Keep us all safe….Thank you in advance…Amen.

I will not watch the results tonight, Tuesday, November 4, 2008. Instead, I will stay busy, work, pray, work some more, pray some more, for the best outcome for all United States citizens.

We are afraid — of change — of losing it all — at times, it looks as though our nation has overcome the deeply embedded programming of a nation once supported by slavery of human beings — and that Racial Division may become a thing of the past…and then, if you look around, you see White faces filled with fear…wondering what will happen if, if, if … will it remove their power, will it make things equal, will that equality change the status quo, which has been a security blanket for falsehoods that has brainwashed and tormented human beings in this nation for well over 500 years…what will happen?

And yet, those faces are filled with fear if they keep the same ideology in place that has nearly bankrupt our nation, which may result in an economic crisis, the like of something we have never seen in our history. Something close to a Third World existence seems eerily close to our reality.

African American faces are filled with fear and hope and well, fear…what if “he” makes it and things don’t change for the better…will that be our only chance of proving we are deserving of sharing the decision making and responsibility of this nation’s future? We work, we pay taxes, we cry, we bleed, we care — those faces say… we don’t want revenge, we just want to matter, we don’t want the color of our skin to hinder us any more.

Just remember, only a few presidents in the history of this nation have ever made great strides of positive change for all Americans: Lincoln, FDR, JFK, LBJ, and Bill. Carter tried.

What can one man do that will be so extraordinary as to change the world from top to bottom, bottom to top? The answer: It probably cannot be done, not in four years or eight years. But hopefully, he will try to heal our nation, ease our fears, console the world — by his efforts, and we will see those efforts and appreciate them and work with him. We will not be quick to condemn or judge or give up on him. We will not expect too much too fast. We will exercise patience, and faith, and we will work with him.

And if the game goes on as it has been, and the same ideology continues to rule, well, we know we came close to real change, real hope — for all humanity. Once upon a time, in America, we almost made things fair. And maybe, just maybe, that same ideology, if it wins this election, will take a turn for the better and include the poor, the middle class, the elderly, and make an effort to heal our wounds, our 500 years of conditioning, ease our fears, stop the killing of our young men and women in our military, bring them home safely, protect our borders, and yes, create a surplus.

That’s my dream.

The change of seasons is a wonderful sight to behold. It reminds us that life goes on, change is inevitable, and no matter what your circumstance, the cycle ends and a new one begins. Hope Can Spring Eternal. It Does. It Should. And if we allow it, it will be our Saving Grace.

P.S. For those of us who questioned the Bail Out Rescue “Scheme”, well, we lost this round. It’s unfortunate that We, the people did not get a say. Now remains the future and what it will hold for our nation and our world. Let’s hope it was a positive, intelligent choice that will bring forth prosperity, honesty, and good will for everyone.

On to the Election!
