Hi, there:

I hope your computer is capable of downloading this speech, especially because the media doesn't seem to be hearing the important parts. It is Barack Obama's speech on race in America. It was both honest and moving -- it didn't sugarcoat anything, and it didn't demonize anyone. It was the first time in my life that I have heard a politician talk to Americans as if they were adults. I hope you'll take the thirty or so minutes needed to hear this speech. And then pass it on.
This one is worth your time. )
