>What’s Playing on the iPod right now: “Can’t You See” – Total
So, the Brother won South Carolina. I must admit, I was happy with the win since I did vote for him. I literally made up my mind on Thursday before the Saturday primary.
This year there is something you can like about all three Democratic hopefuls. I didn’t get caught up in the sniping between Barak and Hillary during the debate in Myrtle Beach. I wasn’t offended by Hillary’s comments about MLK because taken in full context I didn’t see anything wrong with the statement. She was simply making a case that while Martin and ’em did great work and paved the way for the civil rights movement, it took a President or government legislation to make the laws. (Although, she should know better than to say anything about Martin Luther da King. Black folks don’t play that!)
Now I did think Bill took things a tad too far when he was campaigning for his wife. I can see why some people have such strong negative feelings about him. It’s like he kept pointing out on the sly, “Hey people, this guy is black.” But the key for me was actually a post I read by Lolita Files over at The Lo Zone. In her post entitled “Get to Know the Man” she has a video about Barak. I’ve included it here. Watch for yourself. And if your primary is coming up soon, make your choice.
