Obama Love - All Over the World

It amazes me how much impact Barack Obama is having all over the world! Apparently, people are paying close attention to this Presidential primary election cycle and are quite taken with him.

Bush, during his travel to Tanzania this week, had to see these wonderful people carrying signs of their sentiments! You gotta love it!

And Calypso artist, The Mighty Sparrow composed and recorded this wonderful tune on behalf of Obama. The Mighty Sparrow endorsed Obama in 2007.

People of Africa and the African Diaspora are moved by this man's message. Not since the Civil Rights Movement of the 60s has a Black American really impacted, motivated and moved the brothers and sisters of the diaspora to this degree. I keep saying that Obama has started a movement here...and from what we can see, abroad as well.

George Graham, a Jamaican journalist, likened Obama's message to that of Bob Marley: "One Love, One Heart, Let's Get Together and Feel Alright".

More to come.

GO GIANTS!!!!





Let me start off by saying that I'm a Philadelphia Eagles fan...a moment of silence for my team.

With that said, I told everyone I know since the Giants won the NFC Championship that they were going to beat the New England Patriots...and they didn't make a liar out of me!!!! I've been called "silly", "a hater" and told that "women always go for the underdog". And they are friends! But I just kept my own counsel because I knew that the Giants could do it.

Let's just say that this is also a little bit of redemption. Okay, Da Eagles went up against the Patriots in the Superbowl a few years ago - and lost. Yeah, I may be a bit bitter...just a tad. So I'm glad that another NFC East team shocked the Patriots into reality and knocked them off their high horse! No 19-0 for them...no copyright for a "19-0" trademark. They can be and were defeated!!! What a wonderful end to their season!!!!!


I'll let the Giants fans enjoy this. Come next year, Da Eagles will be back and taking no prisoners in the NFC East...Game On!!!

Congratulations Giants!!
