Reminds me of this ghetto republican lady who references how young kids get down in the streetz deez dayz:

Really interesting video. Recently Colin Powell on Meet the Press came out and very openly asked so what if Obama were Muslim? He went on to say what if there were a 7 year old Muslim American why should he not have that dream to be president one day? Any republicans want to comment on that? CNN did an article recently covering how Muslim Americans are reacting to the negative attention being directed at Muslims in this campaign.

Sajjad Bhai put it best when he commented on this incident (see post title).

Mr. 10% is now Mr. 110%

This is a Must hear show Brian Lehrer did today yesterday on Wnyc. I wanted to call in and make the point that the public sector consists of both the government as well as non-profit agencies. Non-profits help cover ground that the government fails to reach. Many times non-profits refer people in need to government programs and resources that are not well announced. For someone like Giuliani who was our freaking mayor should know the importance and role of non-profits and community organizers. Pahlin and Giuliani want to seek the highest political offices but are unaware of who the government partners with to help the people. Then again these people aren’t looking to help anyone but themselves for a power grab.

Make sure you are registered to vote now or you might miss the deadline. Also find out where to vote so you don’t lose your chance. See deadlines here.

I just saw the video they played at the Republican Party Convention which was filled with 911 imagery. Fear mongering is not going to get them to the white house. Most Americans are tired of that garbage. The rejection of Rudy Guiliani’s bid for the Republication nomination is proof that running on a 911 ticket will not get you there.

The last few days the impression that I (as an independent) have gotten of the republicans is that of power hungry, greedy, selfish, non-diverse, close-minded ignorant…. bs etc. I can go on and on.

There’s been over 300 arrests this week of protesters who have been charged with felonies. What was being American all about again?

Interesting way for Aaron Magruder to comment on the state of his own people.Now some reflections on the current election and the status of race (issues) in this country. Let me ask you a simple question: Would Barrack Obama have a chance at the U.S presidency if he were not light skinned? I don’t think so, he would not be taken as seriously if he was dark (even by black people). We know of this self hate all too well in the Indian Subcontinent.His good looks are really helping him cut through the racial bias. Like Mos Def said.. he’s a good looking man. He has been put on numerous magazine covers, which has given him serious national exposure (even more so than Edwards). I think he should take Oprah on tour with him like Huckabee does with Chuck Norris.

Popular Muslim Blogger Umar Lee wrote a not so obviously satirical letter from Obama about his religious identity. This is also a racial issue because it has to do with Obama’s roots.

On a related note, Mitt Romney interacts with parade marchers on MLK day and stumbles over himself trying to use pop/hip-hop references. While taking pictures with a group of black kids he says “Who let the dogs out!” WTH, what a moron! Then he refers to a little black baby as Michael Jordan, says bling bling and comments on a little girls pretty (white) gloves! One youtube commenter says this must be his first time around black people (causing him to act so awkwardly). He wouldn’t do the same thing with prospective voters of the Caucasian race would he?
