Calm down guys......So you've chosen a black man as Democratic nominee.    Well whoop-ee-do!!.....Haven't the Pubs made Miss Rice one of the most powerful women in America?
The fact that Miss Rice happens to be black has no bearing on her attitude towards Americas poor.
"So will it be with Obama"
Looking from affar, Mr Obama has always seemed a desperate election gimmick by a desperate Party.
The gamble has just come good, but never believe Obama will be anything other than a creature of Corporate America.

Im afraid the populace of the US and the UK have a much further road to travel before we can hold our heads high.
The problem is that many here and in the population at large still see "radical" as a dirty word......Ake
