[lbo-talk] Nicole Richie endorses Obama

[Charles Brown]

It's true that there is no need to ask somebody on the list who Nicole
Richie is because it is readily available on a search engine. However,
asking it on email is closer to interacting with a person in person and
as a person , and a search engine is more like "talking" with a robot,
or more indirectly with a person. 

Speaking of Obama, how tragic that Rev. Wright (a follower of Jesus ,
whose story emphasized forgiveness ) didn't use this opportunity to let
his anger go ( he had adequately expressed it and correct criticisms of
America),  and make a speech on racial reconciliation and forgiveness;
take his lead from Obama.  Sure  it's true that US has had Indian
genocide,  slavery, Jim Crow, etc.  But is there any future in  treating
racism as permanent ? The profound hope of O's campaign is once again
dreaming Martin Luther King's dream, without denying history.

Now Wright may have undermined O's efforts to unify.

Still, we will win.
