Barack Obama, gave a speech today that was supposed to deal with the comments made by Reverend Wright. And it did. And more. It was one of the most important speeches in American history, because it opened the door for dialog about race, between races. Not only that, it was about more than race.
My biggest concern is that people will only hear the short cuts that news programs decide to air based on their bias and POV. Do yourself a favor and go over to Watergate Summer and click on the title. Enigma4Ever has a link to the entire 37 minutes of history.

I've been telling anyone who has not seen the entire speech, that they have to. For some reason, listening to him even makes me feel safer.
