Yes, you should know that when Pastor Wright called this the "United States of White America" he missed half of the story. As any former Edwards supporter can tell you, there are two Americas - but they are not white and black. They are the wealthy and comfortable, on the one hand, and those just making it and disaffected, on the other hand. The other half is out there and we need to address them and bring them into the political and economic life of the country. The question is, who can bring them together to adopt the policies that we all need? Health care available to all, which will reduce the cost of health care for the rest of us. A foreign policy that we can all support and be proud of, and that will make the people of other countries respect us again. Education that enhances all of our lives by putting more knowledge and creativity into the workforce. Obama is the only one that can do this, and he is our best chance to change America for the better.
