I grew up in Oak Cliff, an inner city area of Dallas. There are several identifiable times when I, my siblings, or friends were told we could only go \"so far.\" I come to JJP everyday, and comment sparingly, and I even donated money. But I appreciate all you guys have done through this election season! I work full time and attend law school at night. I've been privileged to attend and work for some of the best schools in this nation, but at the same time, in these same institutions I have heard some of the most uninformed, unfair comments. Perhaps fortuitously, I have a double degree in Religious Studies and Political Science and could argue factually and historically for my support of President-Elect Obama and for African Americans (and our religious and cultural sensibilities). But aside from the intellectual arguments, I felt this campaign so emotionally. I cried with the women of my family when he won, and it's still sinking in that that beautiful family that just walked on the stage will ignite such a paradigmatic change in this nation. There really are no words to explain what this moment meant to me personally, but thank you all for working to articulate the voices of those who work too hard to complain, who know no other way but to endure, and for those whose sacrifices were simply their way of making a way out of no way!

Secretly, Palpatine is Darth Sidious, a Dark Lord of the Sith who initiates and manipulates the Clone Wars to destroy the Jedi and usher in the totalitarian Galactic Empire.<br><br>Mentioned by Grand Moff Tarkin in Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope (1977), the Emperor was characterized as a cunning but weak politician under the control of powerful bureaucrats in Lucas's original scripts of Star Wars. However, in Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back, Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi, the prequels, and Star Wars literature, the character is depicted as the personification of evil and heavy-handed authoritarianism. Palpatine was incorporated into the Star Wars merchandising campaigns that corresponded with the theatrical release of Return of the Jedi and the prequel films.

There are several identifiable times when I, my siblings, or friends were told we could only go "so far." I come to JJP everyday, and comment sparingly, and I even donated money. But I appreciate all you guys have done through this election season! I work full time and attend law school at night. I\'ve been privileged to attend and work for some of the best schools in this nation, but at the same time, in these same institutions I have heard some of the most uninformed, unfair comments. Perhaps fortuitously, I have a double degree in Religious Studies and Political Science and could argue factually and historically for my support of President-Elect Obama and for African Americans (and our religious and cultural sensibilities). But aside from the intellectual arguments, I felt this campaign so emotionally. I cried with the women of my family when he won, and it\'s still sinking in that that beautiful family that just walked on the stage will ignite such a paradigmatic change in this nation. There really are no words to explain what this moment meant to me personally, but thank you all for working to articulate the voices of those who work too hard to complain, who know no other way but to endure, and for those whose sacrifices were simply their way of making a way out of no way! From a little heard from family member...Thank you and I love you, JJP!</div>\

Secretly, Palpatine is Darth Sidious, a Dark Lord of the Sith who initiates and manipulates the Clone Wars to destroy the Jedi and usher in the totalitarian Galactic Empire.<br><br>Mentioned by Grand Moff Tarkin in Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope (1977), the Emperor was characterized as a cunning but weak politician under the control of powerful bureaucrats in Lucas\'s original scripts of Star Wars. However, in Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back, Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi, the prequels, and Star Wars literature, the character is depicted as the personification of evil and heavy-handed authoritarianism. Palpatine was incorporated into the Star Wars merchandising campaigns that corresponded with the theatrical release of Return of the Jedi and the prequel films. The character has since become a symbol of evil and sinister deception in popular culture, particularly in the United States.<br></i><br><br><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palpatine" rel="nofollow">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palpatine</a></div>\

I don\'t have a problem with crediting Whites who support/sacrifice but when we press on, time after time, whether the barrier stands or falls... the credit should be to whom it is due.<br><br>The spirit of our people... the tradition and legacy of our ancestors...  Those are the people who deserve the credit and the last thing anyone, even us ourselves, should cheat us out of is the credit for never letting the barriers be an obstacle and never letting this country... this country... break our spirit.<br><br>If there\'s one belief... one lesson Dr. King taught and had faith in when he preached non-violence is that kind of transformative power that not only transforms us but the country in the process.<br><br>MSNBC had T.D. Jakes on early and I liked his statement even though he talked about how the "country" has progressed...  Jakes said he differed from older folks who originally doubted (as I did) that the country was ready.  I can\'t remember exactly how he said it but he went on to affirm the feeling I always had, regardless to what I thought about the country:  I knew Obama was good enough to win and would if given the opportunity.</div>\

During the Reverend Wright saga, Joe would put him on daily to criticize Reverend Wright and Black Liberation Theology.  Little do white folks know he was Reverend Wright back in the day.  He actually attended Harvard for a year or two but left because he said he couldn\'t deal with the conformist attitude of the other black folks on campus.  He had a drug habit and had a baby before he got married from what I understand.  He almost lost his church in Boston over charges of a ongoing child rape at the day care center at his church.  Oh, but he won\'t tell that.  Let him tell it, Barack was supposed to know Reverend Wright\'s every thought and words and be held accountable, but he didn\'t know what was going on inside his church.<br><br>No, he won\'t tell that would lose him his slot on the \'Morning Joe\' token rotation along with Jonathan Capehart and John Ridley.</div>\
