Its about more than race John.
That was gracious, but this is way bigger than black vs. white.

I should say a gracious exit speech as I have ever heard or seen. I might have voted for that guy.
His fucking crowd ought to shrivel up and blow away, though. The people have spoken, knuckledraggers!
Furthermore, I never thought I would see Jesse Jackson cry. I had the privilege to see him speak a few years ago and it was more powerful than I can relate. Seriously a monumentous occasion.
P.s. please O please Dear God and Jesus and Mohammed (praise be to his name!) please O Shiva, Krishna and Zeus, please don’t let anybody do anything stupid or hasty.
Agreed. That was a great speech. It only makes his campaign of the last few months sound worse.
Portions of the speech are recycled from a speech he gave at the NAACP Convention in July. It’s in Politaoke’s program and I am posting tomorrow or tonight if I can get it done, an analysis of the two speeches.
I feel exactly the same way!
I won’t be comfortable until tomorrow morning, when I see that the vote count did not “mysteriously flip” in favor of McCain..
Hope it doesn’t happen this time.
Nice speech, but I couldn’t understand most of it. I’m in mexico
and it was in spanish. But it looked good! He looked relieved…
goodnight, boys! Good job.
