Wow, Bev, this is an example of an issue that I think is of almost  
inconsequential relevance. It is in the same area as whether Bush  
snorted cocaine or cheated on his military obligation and whether  
Clinton inhaled or did improper things to avoid the draft and whether  
McCain was a hothead and a hotshot pilot who crashed planes. Young  
people do dumb things that they later regret and they are often loathe  
to talk about them. Pretty understandable, especially in the present  
gotcha media world.

If this Harvard stuff is true (and I must say I am ignorant of the  
facts) it may show that Obama needed help and took it. Who among us  
would not? I happen to admire mentoring of young people who show  
promise. A wise mentor neither expects nor demands repayment.

I would expect Obama to be more sensitive to blacks' needs and more  
knowledgeable about them than a white president. Blacks have waited a  
very long time for such.

The Bush family is thick with the Saudi royal family. I do not  
understand the point.

By all means follow the money. Do I understand correctly that these  
things are alleged or are there facts?

Gene:
The problem, as I see this, if  President Bush as a young man made errors did 
he make a change in his personal life as a grown man. I believe he moved his 
personal life in the right direction. Is the hotshot pilot Senator McCain the 
same person now. I don't think so. I believe he has the maturity to lead our 
Country in a way that will best protect us from the islamic terrorist of this 
world. Remember they do not just want to be a part of our great nation but 
control it. Christians are their enemy and yes even all other people who do 
not submit to their views.
I do not know if Bracka Hussein OBama is a true muslin or not, his closest 
associates seem to point him in that direction. He can do a lot of damage to 
our great Country in just a short 4 year term. I look for much more 
information about his personal beliefs and what his vision is for our Country 
in the next 28 days. I am very much afraid his promises mean nothing. Much 
like the Arabs who surround Israel, who's stated beliefs are "it is ok to lie 
and offer peace if we achieve our mission to rid the world of the Jews".

Gene if agree the black man needs a break especially those who try hard to 
make a break from their drug infested neighborhoods and make something of 
their lives. We should help in anyway we can. Some of the best people I know 
are the black leaders in my own community. Many are teachers, coaches and 
principles in our school systems. These men are true heros in my book. 

May God continue to Bless and have patients with our Country
