PERMANENT Change?
The President "sprung" for dinner last night at a posh Washington hotel with his arch (mostly "Johnny Reb") Republican enemies in the Senate. His guests might be the first to recognize that the window of opportunity is closing for one of them to become the "first" to declare he's made "friends" with the first Black President. They won't have Obama to kick around for much longer. His second term can go by pretty fast.
They're already targetting Hillary, who is cued up to become the first Female President in 2016. Johnny Rebs can't be politically viable at home if they are "friendly" with any non-white who is a serious competitor for power in this country. The same applies, to a somewhat lesser degree, if the contender is white, but female.
What about those non-white, and female, voters who voted for Obama? What will they do after this term passes? One thing that the non-white voters (both male and female) must recognize is the economic impact of a return to white rule (whether female or male). After all, the real color of racism is GREEN! Failure to learn the true meaning of the change brought about with the 2008 and 2012 elections could be disastrous for those minorities who have always fared poorly under white rule. If these past eight years have not convinced them to permanently change the way they acquire and manage money, their return to the bottom of the economic pile will be accelerated after 2016.
Scott Joplin, inventor of Ragtime, named one of his most famous rags, The Entertainer. Eldridge Cleaver, in Soul On Ice, draws the distinction between what he called The Omnipotent Administrator and the Super-Masculine Menial. Entertainment, in music, dance, sports, etc., have been a mainstay for black citizens of this country since the days of the Minstrel. Their creations have wide appeal all over this planet. The entertainment path, however, has not produced much lasting wealth for blacks, for more than a hundred years! Its time to learn 21st century economics and learn how wealth must be built in the future.
The green lessons are the ones to be learned as we adjust to 21st century global economics. If we succeed, we will become the change we seek! The Obama family is a model for some of us; not Messiahs!
