Columbus, Ohio--Obama rallied today: 60.000 people came to see him--compared to Palin who drew 4.000---------?

...so what does that tell you? I know that estimations on the electoral college votes are not fair, but it has been estimated that Obama already has 283 electoral votes--more than he would need to win this election. I think this is one history making election, and I am excited. I was 15 years old when Dr. Martin Luther King got inated. I'm white, but I always felt that injustice had been done to blacks--and to see a black man now beating all the odds is awesome---I know, ther'll be a lot of snotty replies--but before you send it off to me, I'd like to ask you to really be truthful with yourself and ask yourself if it really would be so bad to have a president who is darker than you--a president who believes that people have certain RIGHTS, rights that are given to them as PRIVILEGES that can be taken away at any time.....would it really be so bad? Or, if you can be honest with yourself---is it his blackness that bothers you? You don't have to tell me, I don't need to know---all I need to know is that I believe that Barack Obama is the right guy for this job and that I voted for him already--so what about you? Any thoughts?
