Like Sam Cooke Said...

Amazing. This moment leaves me speechless and I'll remember where I was, how I felt and what I was doing and who I was with when the news came. Now about half of America is on some supernatural high, too afraid to come off of cloud nine, better yet known as change. But the other is half is not so speechless, where a lack of words would be appreciated...

So what do you say to the first African American President of one of the strongest standing democratic establishments? Congratulations? Fuck you? What's next? I would say thank you among other things. Thank you for wanting change enough in a superficial nation where race is more than arbitrary than the composition of dirt and where capitalist rule a society of dollar signs and material wealth. And thank you for wanting change enough to risk your life, family and in some cases even values to save a country.

But then again, Obama is in on that. And by that, I mean that government stuff. Still I don't think we question the government enough. So many theories have been proposed, facts established and eyebrows raised at what it takes to become president. One of course is the secret society factor and Obama, like every other president has that box checked off. It is hard to establish where I stand with things like this because I think Obama means common ground, change, the things he stood for essentially.

But then I find out he's in the Masonic Order, 32nd degree, where 33rd degree is as high as you can go so he'd be like one step away from being the leader of the leaders. And for those who do know, no one has ever been able to be president without being a member of one of these secret societies (skulls, masonic order...etc.). So where does the shit end and the change begin? Is he going to screw us over or is he going to be everything we've expected and hope for and then some? Is he one player who played the game to well or just another pond?

Was the black suit reminiscent of Malcolm X a ploy on black people's emotions? Is the genuine smile meant to trick us? Was his articulation in every speech meant create false expectations or raise our standards? How is it that the man with the stereotypical black family grows up to be president? Who is Obama really working for? I've got to many questions, so I may need to ask him in person...
