Post Election Questions

Now that Senator Obama is going to be the 44th president of the United States, the lingering question is what now? What does this mean for Black people? What does this mean for everyone else?

President-elect Barack Obama has great difficulty ahead. Black America got what they wanted and that’s a Black President. Obama says that he’s going to bring “change,” but with the unprecedented powers that the Bush administration is going to leave behind, what is there to make us think that the Democrats will surrender that power?

As was outgoing President Bush, so is President-elect Obama: they’re puppets for the new world order.

As I conclude, I will leave you with the following to ponder:

1. Will there be change? I’m not kidding.
2. Will there be gun confiscation under an Obama administration?
3. Will the election of President Obama be an end to racism and a healing of the racial divide that still exists in the United States today?
4. Will there be food riots and a possible race war?
5. Will there be more military adventures overseas?
6. Will Obama pull the troops out of Iraq within 16 months?
7. Will Black people continue to sleep under the illusion that we’ve made it to the promised land?
