Yes HE Can!



As I passed by the Brooklyn Diner on 57th St. last night all 4 of their T.V's were tuned onto Obama's address, watching history in the making. I woke up this morning and watched the speech that the show had me miss last night. It's absolutely refreshing to hear an address by a man who doesn't sound like Ernest addresses the nation. I wonder if the feelings I got watching this were the same as someone watching Martin Luther King jr. speak or JFK or Lincoln. I've been asked rather rudely at times if I think Barack Obama will change all the problems in this country, if "He'll fix things." All I can say is that I am tired with the struggles in this country and I have hope which is about all we can carry these days. Yes, I believe him.
