Greetings
On-Line Family!
Wow, this past Tuesday
(4/22/08) was very exciting and a bit “nerve-wrecking” as
well, due to the Pennsylvania Primary and its results.
Todd and I were “glued” to the TV checking out the
results and the comments (political expert analysis as they call
it) by the media folks. What
a night!!! It was
humorous for us when we saw after only 1% of the vote was
counted almost all the media outlets declared Senator Clinton
the winner. That
was a bit puzzling, but funny!!
Seriously though, I must
start of by saying to some of my friends and On-line family
members who are “die hard” Senator Hilary Clinton fans; a
BIG CONGRATULATIONS to all of you.
Yup…you guys won the state of Pennsylvania, and
that’s a great win for you!
Remember though, “IT’S NOT OVER, TILL IT’S OVER”
and it’s far from being over.
We the Obama supporters are happy to call attention to
the fact that Senator Obama has won twice as many states as
Senator Clinton and by excellent margins, has more popular
votes, and is still ahead in the delegate count.
I must point out however, it
was affirmed by every poll, and by everyone including the media
that Senator Clinton would win Pennsylvania and by a huge margin
(20 points.) Not
to mention the Senator has major family ties in the state, who
incidentally at an early age in the Senator’s life taught her
to shoot guns. Certainly,
she would have won!
Nevertheless,
Senator Obama and his camp worked extremely hard and did some
major grass roots campaigning, in addition to spending twice as
much money on media advertising as Senator Clinton; which paid
off greatly by the considerable amount of points Senator Obama
was able to gain to close the large point lead Senator Clinton
had (from 20 to 10.) I certainly can’t fault
Senator Obama for spending so much, and I feel the media should
not make it such a negative.
Senator Obama would surly have been a foul if he had not
spent the amounts of dollars he did on the ads.
It was known that he would not win and he had to do
something, actually he had to do all he could to fight to win
the state. Great
Fight!!!
Per CNN with 99% of the
precincts reporting Senator Clinton won 55% of the votes (a
total of 1,260,416 actual votes) and Senator Obama won 45% (a
total of 1,045,910 actual votes) resulting in Senator Clinton
gaining 83 delegates and Senator Obama gaining 73 delegates.
Their totals now per CNN’s count are as follows:
Senator Obama has a total of 1724 (1491 Delegates and 233 Super
Delegates) and Senator Clinton has a total of 1589 (1333
Delegates and 256 Super Delegates).
MSNBC
count total delegates varies slightly, they are showing a 99% of the precincts
reported: Senator Clinton
won the same 55% with a total of 1,260,416 and gained 83
delegates and Senator Obama won 45% with the actual vote count
being 1,045,910 and gained 73 delegates. Their
total delegate count is: Clinton 1596 (1334 Delegates and 262
Super Delegates and Obama - 1728 (1490 Delegate and 238 Super
Delegate).
Fox
News count varies as well, their count is as follows: Senator
Clinton won with 54.64% with a total of 1,260,444 votes and
received 83 delegates - her total delegate count to date is
1593; and Senator Obama received 45.36% with a total of
1,046,222 votes and received 73 delegates - his total
delegate count to date is 1723.
So, to Senator Obama’s
supporters rejoice and please “don’t fret” he is still
ahead substantially! Senator Clinton only received 10 more delegates by winning
Pennsylvania, and as you see she is still significantly behind
him in the entire race for the nomination to the highest office
in the land.
Thus, we must celebrate Senator
Obama for pulling off so much, especially since he was predicted to lose
quite badly. He
still did excellent and I’m proud to see what he and his
campaign have done, despite the demographics of the state of
Pennsylvania.
Very good job…and they say he can’t close the deal…huh!!!!
They even insinuate frequently
that he’s getting votes because of the African-American
voters…I think not! It’s
far beyond that people! !! After all (per a United States Census of
some years ago) African-Americans only make up 13% of the
total population in the entire U.S.
If this is accurate then African-Americans are not the
only reason why Senator Obama is winning.
So please acknowledge there is a whole lot of people
voting for Senator Barack Obama, not just the African-American
family! It’s a wide range of people of all classes, colors,
races and religion - all across America who is voting for this brilliant
& exceptional man!
Now, it’s on to the next
states – Guam holds its caucus on May 3rd, and
Indiana and North Carolina primaries will take place on May 6th
(approx. 2 weeks away). They
will be followed by Nebraska and West Virginia primaries on May
13th; Kentucky and Oregon primaries on May 20th
and Idaho primary on May 27th.
Evidentially, the fun is just about to begin again!!!!
Below I have placed one of
Senator Obama’s most recent speeches that took place in
Pennsylvania last week. It was delivered to a very large crowd (approximately 35,000
people.) Check it
out below by clicking the picture and please enjoy!!
As these primaries approach, please keep talking, sharing and coming up with
solutions regarding the important RACE issue.
I leave
you with the same statement I have left you with every week. "Please
remember to
judge Senator Obama on his words, his actions and the content of
his character.
Kindly continue standing up and not
accepting the same old tactics, rhetoric
and old politics. I encourage you to continue talking about race and
the hurtful issues you might have experienced throughout
life. Most importantly let's continue building this movement
and voting for Senator Barack Obama".
With your support and votes Senator
Obama will continue succeeding. We know he is "the
one"..."the one" who absolutely has the
ability and wisdom to move us forward; "the one"
who has the answers to all of the many issues plaguing America
currently, and we know he is "the one" who can take us
forward toward that change we are seeking in a positive
manner. I hope you are looking forward to
the overall change as I am, so lets continue making history
together!!!!"
Blatant
"RACISM"
- Pastors and Pro-life Protest in Washington - To stop the
Genocide of African-American Babies.
Today
(April 24th), in Washington DC we discovered there was a major
protest by Pastors and pro-life activists that took place
regarding "Planned Parenthood". Apparently,
the main purpose of this protest was to bring attention to the
targeting and killing minority babies due to "Planned
Parenthood", and to bring attention to (1) the fact that a
total of 1,800 black babies are killed a day; and (2) the fact
that 95% of these clinics are located in Urban areas.
The main goal though, is to get Congress to stop funding
"Planned Parenthood" which received more than $335
million in government grants (tax payers dollars) and contracts in the most recent
fiscal year.
Funny,
this happened because earlier this week Todd shared with me some
important information he discovered about this very same issue
"Planned Parenthood". Of course, I had to do
some intensive research and discovered some facts that astounded
both Todd and myself.
Abide
with me as I explain what we discovered and why it is
important. Did you know that "Planned
Parenthood" at one time was called "The Negro
Project"?
This
"Negro Project" was the brainchild of the "Planned
Parenthood" founder Margaret Sanger, who as I read was a white
supremacist, and aligned herself with supremacists. Ms.
Sanger was a Eugenicist (Eugenics is defined as a science that
claims and deals with the improvement of future generations - as
by control of human mating of hereditary qualities of a race or
bread). Eugenicists believe some races are genetically
superior and more fit to survive than others, and Ms. Sanger's
goal was to find a way to discourage the "unfit" and
"inferior" from reproducing. According to her
book entitled "Piovot of Civilization" written
in 1922, she called for segregation of "morons, misfits,
and the maladjusted" and sterilization of "genetically
inferior races." From my readings the race she
was referring to and considered genetically inferior was
"the black race".
Let
me back-track a bit - Ms. Sanger founded the Birth Control
League in 1916 (the forerunner of "Planned Parenthood"
- she changed the Leagues name to this "Planned
Parenthood" because "birth Control" was too
closely associated with eugenics.) She appointed to the
board of directors a known Nazi Sympathizer and a fellow
eugenicist - Mr. Lothrop Stoddard who wrote "The Rising
Tide of Color Against White World Supremacy"
Ms.
Sangers actually devised her "Negro Project" (as she
named it) in 1939. She suggested that the Federal
Government pay "obviously unfit parents" not to have
children and advocated limiting and discouraging "over-fertility
of the mentally and physically defective".
She,
the Eugenist and her team set out to implicate black ministers
and doctors in her efforts to spread her message of
contraception, sterilization, and abortion in the black
community. Of course, as she put it "The most
successful educational approach to the Negro is through a
religious appeal. We do not want the word to get out that
we want to exterminate the Negro population, and the minister is
the man who can straighten out that idea if it occurs to any of
their more rebellious members"
As
I read further, I learned people in the poorer areas -
particularly in the South were producing "alarmingly
more than their share" of babies, so Ms. Sanger was
able to enlist a few black men to help make her project/cause
work successfully, such as W. E. B. Debois (NAACP co-founder)
and Dr. Adam Clayton Powell, Sr. (minister), and even the Rev.
Martin Luther King, Jr. (He received an award from Planned
Parenthood in 1966 and per his acceptance speech, he stated
"There is a striking kinship between our movement and
Margaret Sanger's early efforts.")
Hum,
what a revelation for both Todd and I! We all thought
pro-choice was a good thing as well as planned parenthood, and
all along it was a plot to eliminate the black race...Wow!
These Pastors and Pro-life activists' main goal is to STOP THE
GENOCIDE OF AFRICAN-AMERICAN BABIES! I
found some details on this protest, so
Click here to read!
You
have got to read all about this "Negro Project", I
truly believe you will be enlightened as I am, and you must let
