Saturday Sayings Special Edition-Quotes from the Next President
Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we've been waiting for. We are the change that we seek.
Community colleges play an important role in helping people transition between careers by providing the retooling they need to take on a new career.
Focusing your life solely on making a buck shows a certain poverty of ambition. It asks too little of yourself. Because it's only when you hitch your wagon to something larger than yourself that you realize your true potential.
-Barack Obama

Affirmative Action-Necessary or Not?
This is an election year. 2008 is the year of the black man. Did he earn what he has using affirmative action?
No.
Did he earn it off of good looks? Money? Privilege?
No, No and No.
So the question is if a black man can accomplish running for President 40 years after the man with the dream was killed then is Affirmative Action really necessary?
From a Republican view absolutely and we must use Affirmative Action to refocus. We must teach from the African-American perspective. Once this happens we will be able to freely have conversations without feeling that there is a racial undertone. We will be able to listen to the other side's views and opinions of us without getting offended.
The second part of it denotes that we must refocus our energies on making sure the Black resources stay within the Black Community. We have to make sure that the children of the inner-city are as educated as their suburban counterparts.
If we do all this then Affirmative Action will no longer be necessary.
From a Democratic point of view Affirmative Action is and will be always be necessary because America is racist. That does not mean that a black man can't become president. Also we must note that it is easier for a white person with a record to get a job than a black man without one. Biased much?
I think so, what say you? Is Affirmative Action necessary or would our refocus on children and resources solve the problem?
No.
Did he earn it off of good looks? Money? Privilege?
No, No and No.

I Am Not My Sister's Keeper
SoOoOoO...Anyone out there ever dated someone then a close friend, sibling or cousin dates them?
I think that's a bit odd. I mean I would never want anyone whose been anywhere near my best friend's mouth ( I love you girl ) But still it's almost like incest.
Now, has anyone ever done it as a result of feeling that your mate was cheating so you try to corrupt their minds?
I was just thinking of it. After listening to the Gerald Levert "Eyes and Ears" I was like wow...Sean that's your brother's woman and you trying to get in it? Oh just to spite her.
And I'll knock your black ass out. Good Looking Out Gerald!
RIP Both of you.
