I think that President Obama is beginning to realize that a lot of his plans have backfired.

I don't think President Obama has been that revolutionary in reaching out to ethnic communities. President Reagan did a lot for the black community that people don't realize.

Change, you must the world;

People need more jobs;

You must stop their sobs.

Let peace remain awhile.

Prices must be cut;

None can live in hut.

Pollution must stop;

Make a friendlier cop.

Live, they shouldn’t but why?

Change is what you need;

How Did You Get Past Me
'What are you waiting here for? '
I'm waiting to get a glimpse,
Of the new president.
'Who? Obama?
Yes, of course.
Is there any other?
'No!
Not quite like President Obama.
And...
He's already inside.'
Impossible.
I've been standing here waiting.
'Well...
We not too long ago played a game of basketball.
He's amazing.
I see him from here.
He's looking at us now! '
WHAT? No way?
'Way! '
President Obama?
How...what...did you?
I've been waiting to see you.
How did you pass me...
To get inside?
~There is more than one way to get inside,
You know.
And besides...
What direction were you looking in?
Up?
You should see my fading jump shot.
And I have yet to perfect it!
Come on in.
I'm showing my teammates,
A new game of 'strategy' I'm developing.
I'm calling it, 'Let Them Call It What They Want.
However, They Will Know It As This'
I am still working on the title.~
Can you be more specific?
~Of course!
But that will take the fun out of something I want 'felt'.~

Obama
This is for Barack Obama we don’t have to deal with bush any longer.
Obama has spread change to America and now it is the worlds time.
Obama worked for his president seat. Dispite the death threats and racism.
Lets hope we wont have to deal with racism any longer under obama it is not white power or black power it is shared power.
Let god watch over and protect the first black president now I can say I am apart of the hip hop generation.

We know that Europe loves President Obama. He had adoring crowds. The press loves Obama. The question is how will this date end? Okay? The question is, to what end? Why do they love President Obama? They love his personal story, they love his wife. North Korea, China and Russia don't really care about Michelle's arms and, you know, whether they gave an iPod to the Queen, okay?

4th November 2008
'I have a dream! '
And today the dream is fulfilled by electing Barack Obama;
'I have a dream! '
And the 4th November 2008 is now recorded into the History Books;
'I have a dream! '
And today Barack Obama is the 44th President of the U.S.A.;
For the Blackman is capable of handling his or her own affairs.
'I have a dream! '
And 4th November 2008 will be the date to remember always;
'I have a dream! '
For this date gave the First African American to be a President;
'I have a dream! '
And the shout i do hear around me is: 'Obama, Obama, Obama! ! '
'I have a dream! '
That today the Americans had recorded a History to us all;
'I have a dream! '
That the days of the Slavery gone by had yielded fruit today;
'I have a dream! '
And 4th November 2008 had taken us through to fulfil this dream;
So we can really make a change of our lives today.
'I have a dream! '
Today the First Blackman is Elected as the 44th U.S. President;
'I have a dream! '
That today there is joy in the African American Community;
'I have a dream! '
And for who the cap fits must surely wear it;
And today, the cap fits Barack Obama.

Try not to the Unreachable
For putting the moon on my palms,
and setting my foot on Kailash,
I wished at heart….!
All of my efforts backfired
and with the depression sat here.
Hoping to count the stars,
flapping my wings to Mars,
I lost my strength to look up
and host not guests to warm up.
All of my efforts backfired
and with the depression sat here.
Entangled in the trade,
and perturbed seeing fraud,
sleep too forgot to wink my eyes
and lugubrious I was by the worst guys.
All of my efforts backfired
And with the depression sat here.

Presidential Stand
the world economy has gotten out of hand
president OBAMA is the first to take a stand.
he told the republicans: i will do whatever
i have to do 'with or without you'.
we can not stand idlely by and see our nation die.
there will be controversy on what will
and what will not work. but if we do nothing
to help the economy.
'it will show we failed in our history'.
the president has problems galore
and different solutions he has in store.
he is doing what no president has done before.
by grabbing the bull by the reins
and riding it all the way.
will he fall or will he stay?
we must help him make the corral smaller
so that he does not fall to the ground.
then no solutions will be found.
our nation and all the world is watching him
and if we don't help, it's a crying sin.
what will it take for this nation to see
he's the first black president in our history.
it seems like he's fighting a losing battle
with very little support from his peers.
who are still living in fear.
the politicians think:
what if i help and it does'nt work?
i will be the political jerk. i will get so much slack
and there won't be any turning back.
but! if his plans do succeed, on his plans i can feed.
i can ride the waves to the top, and knowing that i will not flop.
the public always remembers the bad
and very rarely the good.
either way it will go into our history books.
of the stands that we took.
i would prefer to be remembered as the afterthought
briefly in their minds, rather than not at all.
because i did'nt have the gall
to stand up for something thats right
and help him to continue the fight.
so it is up to all of us, and 'in him we'll put our trust'.
no one person can do it all by themselves
and we know this very well.
for everything that he has fought
as politicians we should all give our support.
we must do whatever it takes
to help the country, before it's too late.

There Is a Realization That Has Come
All of their thug cronies,
Have silenced themselves of late.
Few seem to be demanding today,
Proof of a president's birth certificate.
And/or birthdate.
There is a realization that has come,
To land upon their sensibilities.
Everything President Obama is trying to correct...
Has been directly associated,
With their incompetence and deeds misguided.
And a prior leadership misdirected.
All of their thug cronies,
Have silenced themselves of late.
Few seem to be demanding today,
Proof of a president's birth certificate.
And/or birthdate.
And their latest fiasco sits in the Gulf of Mexico.
Without a clue how to fix it.
But a blame of this,
Will be wherever President Obama sits.
Since a shifting of blame has been a custom we live with.

Barack Obama
He is the first Blackman and the 44th U.S. President,
And 2008 U.S. Election will be remembered always!
For Barack Obama is his name.
'Say it loud! I'm Black and proud'! ! (James Brown):
For life is like the Rich Man's table and the Poor Man's Kitchen,
But my mind is faster than my fingers at times.
You have made History and,
I will use my legs to be closer to your heart;
For the 'American Dream' is all about you and i.
Being the best among your peers was like,
A thing of joy to grow up and among others;
Rather you chose to be very simple to others like,
A river flowing down to the sea and,
Coming to meet you face to face was like a warrior!
Knowing when the battle begins and ends.
Overcoming the fears and the hatred around you is like,
Barack Obama reaching out to the skies!
As far as becoming the 44th U.S. President in our time and,
Managing the affairs of others too;
As time goes by with you and your team in power!
Black bear, blue bear and the white bear;
Of a man on a vision with the truth,
So open up your eyes and try to see from him too!
143 years after the end of the Slavery in the U.S.A.,
'Change has come to America'! And,
20th January 2009 ushers in the 44th U.S. President.
It is all about the 'American Dream' and,
It is all about life!
Greetings to President Obama and his wife;
Michelle Obama (the First Lady) and the children!
Sasha and Malia should be guided too,
For this History will always be remembered.

Magic night,
Magic moment;

2012 US Presidential Election,
Between Barack Obama and Mitt Romney;
Two, tow! !
And Obama won the election.
Won own!
Obama is still in the Oval office,
For s second term.
Muse, use!
The Democrat and the Republican;
2012 US Presidential Election,
And Obama won the election.
The President needs another four years! !
To fulfil his dreams;
And like the muse of Obama to the world,
303 against 206.
Magic night,
Magic moment,
Obama is still in the Oval office;
For a second term,
Because, he won the election.

I am convinced that I do not want to give up more power to the White House, whether it's George Bush or Barack Obama. And I'm going to fight as hard as I can against President Obama on these earmarks and my Republican colleagues who hate to vote for them, but love to get them.

I learn English from the next door Irish widowed Teacher!
My beloved's best friend and they make cakes together.
One day she asked me to write an essay in few lines of the difference between Mr.Obama & Mr.Osama.
I wrote; 'Mr.Obama is a strong christian
And the President of the U.S.A.
Mr.Osama is a strong Muslim and he does a research on the seabed?
Obama likes literature and Osama likes pornography
That's why I think Osama got plenty wives and Obama only one?
The teacher's very happy and hugged me in a different approach
And I was scared, stopped the classes!
When wife asked why then I explained it's a mixture of Irish & English
And very hard to by heart?

This Could Not be Scripted
We can not realize our expectations,
If many still choose to sit and not participate...
In the cause to affect change.
We all have our 'callings'.
If we allow fear to prevent us from them...
Many of us would still experience a physical bondage.
An enslavement of sorts.
With a persistence that wont quit.
To escape from mental bondage,
Requires faith...
That is determined and unshakable!
Just a few short years ago,
Maybe less than six...
A young black man named Barack Obama,
With a dysfunctional background.
And of mixed heritage,
Was not even into politics.
TODAY...
That same man with an usual name,
Is the President of The United States.
Shattering all depictions of this presence.
If 'that' is not inspiring to anyone who claims,
To be paying attention...
With expressions of their love for God,
And 'ALL' that this Deity IS...
They should not exist!
A man who walks in faith and determination,
To rise above all obstacles has been an example...
For everyone under the Sun!
Whatever racial 'affiliation' of 'choice'
And/or belief of religious limitations...
Should observe with clarity the reality.
And upon us this visitation!
This could not be scripted as a life one has lived...
Even in the money thirsting hands,
Of those in Hollywood!
President Obama's life...
Is clearly a statement that should inspire,
All mankind!

Visit Me
Visit me at the Washingron Park in Chicago and,
You may probably meet President Obama around;
For the love of his muse is for the whole world.
To cherish a rich cultural heritage and values,
And to learn to live harmoniously with one another on this earth;
Because most of the introverts are attentive to the extroverts and vice versa,
And like the strong-willed and hard working people around the world to get along with you.
Visit me and learn from my muse,
For this park is like my home;
And it is very likely that you may meet President Obama as well.
