Today I heard Senator Obama's address to the Democratic National Caucus in acceptance of his parties Presidential Nomination. It was truly an impressive venue, and he is a great speaker. But I was not convinced that - despite his conviction - he has a plan any different from his Vice Presidential running-mate and reluctantly I do not accept him as the man to lead.
It is the 45th Anniversary of the famous "I had a Dream" speech of Dr. Martin Luther KING Jr. during a the "March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom" on August 28, 1963. May he rest in peace for he was a great man.
On the other hand, if 40 years 7 months and 28 days after the martyrdom of Dr. Martin Luther KING, Senator Obama becomes the 44th President of the United States of America on November 4, 2008, I will not deny him that right and will pray that Reverend KING shall smile down on us all.(Image courtesy http://wordle.net was composed from text of speech.)
