    America's Election


    'Rosa Parks sat so Martin Luther King could march,
    Martin marched so Barack Obama could run,
    Obama ran so the future generation can fly'

    As I write this, only a fortune teller could say who the next President would be(that's if you believe in seers). I'm not American but I have taken enough coffee to keep a person awake for a year, is today the day history is made? It's really amazing to think and to actually watch a Black man campaigning for the white house. Martin could only dream but we are actually seeing his dream come true.

    I do implore those of you who are on the other side of the Atlantic to go out and vote, in this election one vote would make a very big difference. I remember meeting some Obama campaigners in Florida this summer and the passion in their voice brought my close to tears. Its not just the fact that he is black but he is also very believable and compelling. He's policies are so on point, the McCain team can call it what they want socialism, anti Joe the plumber...but it's high time the working class gets a break.

    A part of me just can't be too positive, whatever the polls say, they are just polls. We'll know for sure in five hours time...
