Why Obama really won the election?

What is racism? To me racism is basing ones decisions on race. I have heard some real disgraceful statements from members of my family and from comedians on BET during this past election. "You are Mexican so you have to vote democratic." and "I am black, who do you think I am going to vote for". That second statement is the most racist statement I have ever heard... I mean come on really think about it. It not only shows ones ignorance but it is really racist to say that. I mean dont get me wrong racism is definetly on the decline as one of my blogbuddies would put it.

So lets get to the title of this post...Why Obama really won the election? Up until November 4th 2008 there were two common characteristics among the majority of voters....white and elderly. With the primary bringing the first African American Presidential Candidate we now have new demographics that probably never voted before.....African Americans and young voters. So I ask is that really what the Presidential Race should come down to...."I am black, who do think I am going to vote for..."?

Obama Celebration

Lets open the lines for this story... it could go anywhere, politics, race, football, touchdown celebrations.



Brandon Marshall scored the game-winning touchdown tonight for the Broncos on a late TD pass from Jay Cutler. Afterwards, he reached into his pants and pulled out a glove for what looked like a pre-planned celebration, but before he could do anything, teammate Brandon Stokely ran over to Marshall begging him to stop. Following the game, Marshall explained his thwarted plan to the NFL Network crew.
To celebrate Barack Obama's election, Marshall said he wanted to take a page from John Carlos and Tommie Smith's black power demonstration at the 1968 Olympics. Only, 40 years later, Marshall planned to salute the progress made in the country since the Mexico City Games. The 24-year old Broncos receiver wanted to put on the glove, half-white and half-black, to hold up in triumph. It would have been his tribute to racial harmony. But, fearing a 15-yard personal foul that almost certainly would have been called by the refs after such an event, Marshall's teammate put a stop to it.
Said Marshall:
"It [wasn't] about black power, it's not about white or black, it's about U.S.A. red, white and blue. But Stokely came over and said it's too close a ball game."
And, really, isn't that what America's all about: life, liberty and the pursuit of conference victories

Ignorance is definitely not bliss...point illustrated

If you have read through my profile you would have seen that POKER is one of my interests (1 of 2). Well recently I found a website that would let you gamble your hard earned REAL money away...definitely an offshore website. So like all other corporate entities, this website requires a minimum deposit, nothing weird there. After depositing $50, 4 days, long nites, and about 21 all ins', i find my account with a whopping $106. "Fuck Yeah", you might say, but lets keep the Title of this post in mind- "Ignorance is definitely not bliss...". So i head on over to the payment request form, which is just a point click away, put in my info to withdraw my money and find that with any obligatory minimum withdrawal of $51, the FEE associated with that is $50. Aint taht smoe siht. So i will use my 1st blog entry to expose www.betus.com for the fudge packing rapist that they are.
