The weather kinda helped Obama out. His broadcast is going to be in front of one of the World Series games tomorrow. If Philly had won and it was all over, there would be less of an audience, I think.

But with Florida and Pennsylvania both in play, is it really a good idea for him to push the World Series back half an hour?

Yeah....I think most fans will be bit annoyed.

Rosa sat so Martin could walk. Martin walked, so Obama could run. Obama is running so our children can fly.

Cool quote. I'm trying to figure out its origin. So far, all I keep hearing is that it's a quote from "someone on NPR".

Sorry, but that quote makes me vomit. Just so as not to be accused of racism, it has nothing to do with Rosa or Martin. It's the last part.

~~Why? Because people have made strides to bring equality to this country?~~

Edit - SCA replied as I was. Regardless of politics, it is very cool that our country has progressed and a African American can run for POTUS. This event (along with Hillary making it as far as she did) is showing children that they truly can be anything they want to be.

Very cool quote.

I'm with scaeagles. Empty platitude that seems pretty meaningless and not very inspiring to me.
