-which no one has ever had the guts to tackle in the past because of the political consequences of potential failure while there are a lot of wealthy people who like things just the way they are, the ones who built this country this way to support their privileged way of life at the working classes expense.

Change takes time and money. But if Obama does a good job, then we will come out on much better footing. One thing for sure is that we cannot keep doing things the same way we have been that got us here in the first place. It’s a hard lesson for us to learn to see all this money being spent when times are so tough but something has to be done. And if the American people had been paying attention all along, it wouldn’t be this way. So getting everyone angry, yelling and screaming, protesting, reading newspapers and talking to each other where now people are actually getting serious about how this country is run, that is the real cure to all our problems. 

I think that white people are the problem with why the world is such a mess. And white people know it. So as long as there was a white men in the White House, we held our tongue about it because we don't want to admit to the rest of the races of the world that we screwed the world up once again. Traditionally we like to put ourselves above people of color thinking we came from Adam and Eve created immaculately by God from dirt and Adams rib in the garden of Eden. Then Eve ate an apple, made God mad, and got us cast down here to earth to live with all these other races who evolved from primates. Then Jesus came along and gave us a way out of this zoo back to the heaven where we belong, away from these other filthy dirty darker skinned creatures.

But the truth is we are all of African decent having all evolved from the same primates that the other races came from. So rather than impugn the dignity of the truth of our evolution by pretending we are not animals, we should embrace it and our ancestors by acknowledging the other races as our forefathers, peoples who are as we once were who may hold the keys to leading us back to wherever it is we left from that took us so far away from ourselves and the reality of what are we are.

For me, when I stand alone on a high hill in the cold blowing wind under a clear nights sky looking out into the universe only to have it stare back at me with the answers to why I traveled all these millions of years to get here, the answers to why I grew out of the ocean to have legs and arms and later an intelligent mind so I could answer the question of what I am, where I came from, why I exist, I find it far more comforting and rewarding to know how I truly got here than the story we’ve brainwashed ourselves to believe that has only lead us to thinking it is OK to ruin the same world that created us as if it is not our true home.  

Everything that is coming out now about all the corruption in the financial community is nothing new. I have been investigating corruption on Wall Street, in the oil industry, the international corporate and banking world, and in government for many years. I know it is near impossible to get white people to address problems in these areas. We would much rather come home from jobs that pay high salaries for doing nothing and watch the news media tell us about shootings and carjacking in the ghetto so we can blame the problems of the world on Black people rather than looking at the fact the it’s the policies of our financial community that support so many people getting wealthy for doing nothing but making mistakes that creates ghettos in the first place.

So for someone like me who follows these issues from this perspective, it’s no surprise that as soon as a Black man gets into the White House, all of a sudden everything white people have wanted to speak out against in the past but didn’t want to embarrass white people is thrown on the table, which is all now the fault of Barack Obama even though the world has been run by white people for all these centuries while Blacks were scratched and clawing their way to the top to try to fix all the lame ways whites do business, which he is doing faithfully as he promised.

So really all we are watching is the upper middle class and wealthy classes in this country and around the world being forced to change their centuries old dirty rotten skid marked stained underwear in public, something we do to Blacks on the evening news daily, and they are whining up a storm about it. This getting us angry so we are taking our complaints to the streets, a place we had no business ever leaving in the first place.

For most human beings, being given a high paying job that demands doing nothing of any relevance to enhance the quality of their life or society, sitting behind a desk crunching numbers to squeeze money from people who do real work to pay ourselves or gaming the system using rules and regulations give our higher paying jobs a priority over people who do real work so we or our boss can play golf while dictating how the rest of us should live, we tend to take ourselves out of circulation, become less vocal not wanting to draw attention to the fact that we get paid a lot of money for being useless. Now those jobs are drying up so the people who took them are starting to show themselves again.

Welcome back to the real world those of you who were lucky enough to get a glimpse of heaven before the real world woke you back up. Hopefully Barack Obama can shut the gate behind you and lock it so you won’t ever need to worry about wandering away from the rest of us that way again. If he can now find way to get you to do real work, perhaps we can find a way for us to all enjoy a better quality of life in a world where we don’t have to beat up the people at the bottom of society as our way of denying our true nature, something we should forever be proud of.
