The Fears


I get calls from my American friends overseas. They ask if Obama is going to win. I tell them that it will be a landslide.

"That's not the way it looks on the News."

"I know." Not really since I never watch the political gum-bumpers on TV. I'd rather misshape my opinions on my own.

"And I have so many friends who will not vote for a black person."

"That's because you're white and somewhere in your mind you know that you don't want to vote for him too. Don't worry. It's only subconscious and you won't go to Hell for thinking that." Anyone voting for McCain will be exiled to purgatory after Obama is elected president. "Trust me. This is going to be a breeze."

My confidence is based on the theory that in normal times most people do not want to change the status quo, however whenever the status quo threatens your way of life, then it is time for a change.

Anything is better than 4 more years of the GOP.

EVEN SOCIALISM
