Here is my email that I just sent to Tavis Smiley today.
Mr. Smiley:
I just want to thank you for putting African American issues front and center. You know I listened to you last week when you delivered a serve of notice to Presidential Candidates and only one of them had confirmed.
I thought for sure that Hillary, who had done so poorly among blacks, did not and would not confirm to appear on your forum that is up coming in a few weeks. Listening to you this week, finding that Obama, the supposed to be black candidate, promoting black issues, has reported not to attend. This is crazy! What does he mean, he is on a mission? It is the blacks that made him a competing candidate in South Carolina, and this is how he plays the game. I know that since most of the blacks have voted, this is how he thanks us.
I do not understand why Tom, Al Sharpton and Jessie Jackson are not front and center on this mistake by Obama. I know they are playing politics, trying to help Obama and say that this does not matter. Now I tell you this, if Obama confirmed and Hillary did not, they would be all over this as if she said the “N” word. To me this is who Obama really is and this is who Hillary really is, as the day grows longer, this woman has taken a lot of heat and she is still standing. Hillary got my vote here in Florida. I have seen through the fake message of hype from Obama. Obama has talked about change but to what end. He has talked about hope, but what to hope for? This rhetoric is aimless.
I listened to Obama speak on Tuesday and his long drawn out speeches are getting tiring. They do not make since, no substance, and no hope. Hype and charismatic he is but his words are empty, cold, and hard to follow. Chris Mathews was quoted as saying “this sends a chill down my leg”. I would say “he sends a cold wave over my soul.”
