Today, Jan 3, is a historic day. On Jan. 3 in 1621 the first African American, William Tucker, was born in Jamestown, Virginia. In Iowa, Senator Barack Obama has already made history on this day. That’s right, whether he wins Iowa or not - which I'm sure he will - Sen. Obama is the first African American to go to Iowa as a leading contender in the race for the President of the United States. Future history books will read: on Jan 3, 2008 the first African American President won the Iowa primary. It is a very proud and exciting day for America. Black, White, and Brown people should be very elated that we can finally say as a nation, we are not judging the candidate by the color of his or her skin, but the content of their character.
I eagerly look forward to FL, SC, and GA primaries.
I am very proud to be an American!
