Just words about race? Such honest words acknowledging the realities of race in our society are not typical of a mainstream political candidate, and they challenge the colorblind status quo. Race is a big deal and now we can actually talk about it... he is starting a discussion. Look at his Blueprint for America to get into the details, because they are there. I think other politicians (including ones in power now) are much emptier on details than Sen. Obama.

Just words. Pretty words that I agree with, of course. But just words unless you say how you are going to accomplish such lofty goals. Heavy on ideals but light on details, that is Mr. Obama.

Look ,where America is leading to!Iraq war,and problems with econamy are taking america towards hero worship. People are looking for a person ,not a system.
Look back at the history samething happened to other countries.
It is not the issue of race that the real people are facing.
it is the general issue of economy.It is not the question of change,it is the matter of getting out of the situation first and then the change.
people spend so much money to get into power.I s there any moral issue behind this., - 3 years ago
