I'm baaaack

Sorry I was gone for a bit. I got completely caught up with school ending and summer beginning. Anyway things are back to normal now.
I am completely lovin' Barack's visit oversees. He has received such warm welcomes and looks totally presidential. McCain, on the other hand, seems to be quite frustrated with the coverage. But, after all, I believe it was McCain that suggested that Senator Obama travel. Be careful what you ask for. I don't think that anyone knew just how well received Barack would be.
On another note, I watched CNN's Black in America series last night and was very impressed. I thought it would be another session of intellectuals pontificating about the plight of Black Americans. Instead, it was a well produced and thoughtful piece about real people--their struggles and their triumphs and what being Black in America has meant for the them. I look forward to the continuation tonight.
