I want a black president, if he speaks his mind

Curtis Lawrence

I think Obama's appeal to some white people is his perceived calmness -- that's he's not stuck on the civil rights movement, that he can shrug off a Biden comment and do the good ol' boy thing with Sen. John McCain.

I've been told that I'm naive, and that of course Obama can't say what he thinks and still win. Sorry, folks, but I would like to go to the polls and vote for someone who I believe in.
