Barack Obama referenced Haiti in his book: Dreams For My Father
"It is this world, a world where cruise ships throw away more food in a day than most residents of Port-au-Prince see in a year, where white folks' greed runs a world in need, apartheid in one hemisphere, apathy in another hemisphere...
so what did GOD cursed them. for HIM we are all the same sinnners fallll short of the gllooorrry HE loved every single personnnne what ever your religion name and coulor AAAAMMMMEN
How do you fit Barack Obama, Martin Luther King, Mike Barnicle, and a Haitian cab driver in once sentence?
Watch the video and you will.
The video talks about a Haitian cab driver listening to an audio recording of Dr Martin Luther King's "We Shall Overcome" speech while MSNBC commentator Mike Barnicle was in the cab.
He asked the Haitian cab driver if he was voting for John McCain, he laughed

As we expect Barack Obama to win the election, will it be right to continu to call "The White House" by its proper name. Wouldn't it be more appropriate to call it the National palace?
I remember that it was a big deal to make the Martin L Kink Holiday an official Hollyday.
The reason for some not allowing that was because Martin L. King was a black man. Still in some areas of the country, they do not celebrate this Holiday.
Now, let assume Barack Obama becomes the next president of United State of America, how will these people coop?
Mr.
Jesse Helms, the former United States Senator from North Carolina, is probably turning in his grave now
Any comment?
James Taylor performed in Chapel Hill, North Carolina on October 20, 2008.

After watching the final debate the o the r night, it dawned on me that Obama could actually win this thing.
If that happens, the re will be a lot of people (some of our co-workers included) who will be afraid that an Obama presidency will usher in the end of days. They'll be watching us on November 5th ( the day after the election) for signs of the end
times.
To keep the peace and keep a lot of folks from getting nervous, I think we should develop a list of acceptable celebrations and behaviors we should probably avoid - at least for the first few days:
1.
No crying, hugging or shouting 'Thank you Lord' - at least not in public
2 No high-fives - at least not unless the area is clear and the re are no witnesses
3.
No laughing at the McCain/Palin supporters
4.
No calling in sick on Nov 5th. They'll get nervous if too many of us don't show up.
5.
We're allowed to give each o the r knowing winks or nods in passing.
Just try to keep from grinning too hard.
6.
No singing loudly, We've come this Far By Faith (it will be acceptable to hum softly)
7.
No bringing of barbeque ribs or fried chicken for lunch in the company lunchroom for at least a week (this may make us seem too ethnic)
8.
No Cupid Shuffle during breaks (this could indicate a little too much excitement)
9.
Please no Moving on Up music (we are going to try to remain humble)
10.
No doing the George Jefferson dance (unless you're in your office with the door closed)
11.
Please try not to yell~=-BOOOO YAH!
12.
Just in case you're wondering, doing the running man, cabbage patch, or a backhand spring on the highway is 100% okay.
If I've missed anything feel free to add to the list. I just want to make sure we're all on the same page when Obama brings this thing home on November 5th. Now go get your early vote on and let's make this thing happen! :-)
