^^^ One sees that in such a large country that is still predominantly (surely over half) "religious". When , in the future (even if not in all of our lifetimes) , future generations of Americans finally enter into the truly "post-religious" phase, as have many Europeans for example, then probably we will see less nutty preachers. Basically if there was not any market for nutty preacher types, we wouldn't have them plain and simple. | |

"I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: 'We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal.'" "I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character." "I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave owners will be able to sit down together at a table of brotherhood." - Martin Luther King, Jr.
It's not quite there but we walked a few dozen miles down that road, some mighty big steps were taken today.
Keep following the drinking gourd.  | |

| Mr.Wright (Move On) Posted: 11/5/2008 4:10:03 AM | Absolutely amazing, historic election on so many levels: Biggest voter turnout in decades, maybe a century; Obama voters that crossed all ethnic and socio-economic lines; Winning many "Red" states that have traditionally gone Republican.
The numbers are telling. What put Obama over the top was not so much African-American voters but white women, Hispanics, and the youth vote.
I thought both speeches last night -- McCain's concession and Obama's victory -- were excellent examples of magnanimity, graciousness and a call to put aside our differences and party polarizations and work to get the country back on track. That won't be easy, for whoever won last night. Anyone expecting quick fixes and a cure of Messianic proportions will be sorely disappointed. It'll be a long, tough slog. But at least there's hope for a better tomorrow.

Precisely why so many of us joined this 'community organizer' on this historic journey!

| Mr.Wright (Move On) Posted: 11/6/2008 9:32:43 AM | Again..Obama has won and he should be proud of his accomplishment. I would hope he is the president for everyone...not just a certain group. He will need to to able to show some tough love to everyone..black...white...red...brown..I think that if he listens to the people and not the idiots on capitol hill...he will be fine. But, If he bows to Pelosi, Reid and Frank...he will not last.. A democrat won...but if he goes uberlib...he will lose in the end. | |

| Mr.Wright (Move On) Posted: 11/6/2008 9:38:07 AM | Even as a Democrat I have to agree with you. There are extremists on both sides of the aisle and neither is what this country needs regardless of which party is in power. I do believe Obama will govern towards the center, and if he doesn't we as a country will all lose in the end.
