Today Is Election Day - WOW!

For the last few weeks I’ve been it has been made clear that Senator Barack Obama is going to win the election. I cannot see him losing this race today. Senator John McCain’s selection of Alaska Governor Sarah Palin did electrify his campaign for a few weeks however, the wind in that sail has gone. Last night I was watching television and I saw a commercial where the Republicans National Committee finally used Rev. Jeremiah Wright in a negative attack ad. They said that Senator Obama is radical.

At this point it really doesn’t matter because Senator Obama has this election on lock. The only way McCain can win is by stealing the election. However, an overwhelming voter turnout for Obama can make stealing the election very difficult. There’s only one way this presidential election can be stolen by the Republicans and that is to take the votes from Obama and distribute them among the third party candidates. That way, the blame can be cast upon the third parties who’ll be looked at as the bad guys just as Ralph Nader was blamed for the 2000 election.

But I don’t see that happening either. Obama is going to win. If I am wrong, then we’ll find out tonight when the results are announced.

It won’t be long before we find out if we’re going to see this “change” that was preached so much during the campaign.

This is how I am going to measure this “change” that Obama talked about and I hope you readers take note:

1. Will President Obama stop the torture?
2. Will President Obama repeal the Military Commissions Act?
3. Will President Obama repeal Patriot Acts I and II?
4. Will President Obama stop the warrantless wiretaps?
5. Will President Obama repeal the John Warner Defense Authorization Act?
6. Will President Obama put an end to racial profiling?
7. Will President Obama put an end to imperial wars for empire?

This is just a few of the items on my list that will be used to measure on the gauge of change. Change is coming in America; but it’s coming for the worst. There will be even more torture and corruption under the Democrats. Yes, the Democratic majorities will increase in the House and the Senate.

Yes, there will be partying and dancing throughout the night and on into 2009. The economy may look like it’s on the way to recovery. But I digress, all we’re going to see is a Black face placed on white imperialism.

The most dangerous of the presidential candidates will ascend into power tonight. Get ready to lose more civil liberties and constitutional rights. This is going to be very interesting when he takes the oval office. Watch and stay vigilant. I too am watching.

Black America will get its Black president, but what will that mean for us?
