On Obama's Speech on Race

I'm back! But it's late. I loved Obama's speech. I just hope he believes everything he said and acts on it. If he does, then he cannot support affirmative action or welfare. If not, we had a great speech by a typical politician. Either way, we had something we haven't seen in a long, long time, which is, to quote John Stewart, a politician who spoke to America about race as though we were adults. That alone made it a breath of fresh air.
