Yes we can



I just want to remind Joe Nye that he and Ann Coulter are now on the same team.

Have fun kids.

On the other hand...



I just want some honest discussion. Is that so much to ask for?

I don't think so.

But what I do know is that Barack Obama and John McCain would make for a pretty interesting and a far more honest discussion and debate about where the country might go that I, for one, would be interested in hearing. I don't pretend to have more answers than I do. And I like that these guys, better than the other Democratic candidate, pretend less than most of their party faithful they have have better answers than they do.

I don't think that's too much to ask for.

Colin Powell doesn't seem to think so either.

Can you imagine how exciting it must be for black folks in America to know that they may elect their first black President this election on his merits and completely independent of his skin color. Barack Obama and I may not agree on everything. But fulfilling the legacy of Martin Luther King, to have my country be a nation where a man is judged not by the color of his skin, but by the content of his character, is certainly appealing to me.

Yes we can.

Why freedom?

Because if you don't do it, who will?
