Studs Terkel, George Carlin... who else deserved to see Obama cross the finish line? |
|
Lordy, it pains me to see so many great Americans not quite see their country start to redeem itself. Not that we don't all redeem our country a little bit every time we resist the evil that the worst of our fellow citizens do. But dammit, Obama's election is going to be such an important milestone.
I know I'll go to my final rest a bit happier if I die during a Democratic administration.

and has lived through some of the most horrific times in this country. She now has Alheizmers and doesn't know any of us anymore. She can not understand what is happening now. She would be sooooo proud!! Everytime I go to see her I tell her a black man may become President of the United States. Wish she knew it.

Man, there are a lot of great people around. I sometimes worry. But there are two sides to everything. There are two Palins for every Cleese. So it just looks scary. That's why they game the system. They know they're weak.

69. This quote (from '72) basically was a prophecy of what's happened in the last 8 years |
|
<<If the current polls are reliable... Nixon will be re-elected by a huge majority of Americans who feel he is not only more honest and more trustworthy than George McGovern, but also more likely to end the war in Vietnam. The polls also indicate that Nixon will get a comfortable majority of the Youth Vote. And that he might carry all fifty states... This may be the year when we finally come face to face with ourselves; finally just lay back and say it — that we are really just a nation of 220 million used car salesmen with all the money we need to buy guns, and no qualms at all about killing anybody else in the world who tries to make us uncomfortable. The tragedy of all this is that George McGovern, for all his mistakes... understands what a fantastic monument to all the best instincts of the human race this country might have been, if we could have kept it out of the hands of greedy little hustlers like Richard Nixon. McGovern made some stupid mistakes, but in context they seem almost frivolous compared to the things Richard Nixon does every day of his life, on purpose... Jesus! Where will it end? How low do you have to stoop in this country to be President? >>

24. My daughter Bonnie, who took her own life at the age of 15. |
|
She truly despised George Bush. She wrote him a letter before the Iraq war in 2003 at the age of 10 and organized a peace service at our church. I know that she was extremely disappointed by the start of the war, and I didn't have any very good explanations for her as to why this should be allowed to happen. She was a talented musician (vocalist and keyboard) and a smart, loving caring girl with a great sense of humor. She even enjoyed my eclectic musical tastes and was getting into artists as diverse as Bob Dylan, Django Reinhardt, Blind Boy Fuller, Lynrd Skynrd, Neil Young, Memphis Minnie and Dan Hicks & his Hot Licks.
Her mental illness started in 2004 and it took off way faster than we could keep up with it. She died on May 27, 2007. I miss her like crazy every day and know that she would be so excited by Obama's great campaign. I'll be thinking of her on Tuesday night when Obama clinches it. She would be very pleased.

ronnykmarshall posted a wonderful little observation on another thread
Rosa sat so Martin could walk Martin walked so Barack could run Barack ran so we could all fly.
I'm an atheist, but I honestly believe in a kind of cosmic memory. Martin, Bob, Malcolm, John, Hubert, Paul W, LBJ, Barbara Jordan, Molly, Ann, and many, many other heroes, famous and otherwise, are smiling down on Barack Obama. Thankfully, John Lewis is still with us, and as outspoken as ever, to witness for them.

Not a big name I know. However, he passed on October 3rd of a heart attack possibly brought on by complications from Agent Orange. My fiancee and I are getting married on November 15th and he didn't get to see his daughter get married. U.S. Army Captain Frank Hoffman and I had talked many times about politics and after we got past the initial feeling each other out phase, I found he was a huge supporter of Obama. He was excited to see his grandchildren who followed in his footsteps by joining the military come home under an Obama presidency. He felt that prudence and diplomacy were the way any smart person approached conflict, resorting to violence only when there was no other option. Before he passed, he had been in constant battles with the veteran's offices to get his benefits raised as he had numerous complications the doctors attributed to his exposure to Agent Orange. He knew first hand the treatment of veterans by the republican policies. He never had the chance to cast his vote in North Carolina unfortunately. When my fiancee and I went to see Obama speak in Fayetteville, it weighed heavily on my mind that Frank would have loved to have joined us. I know that when I cast my vote down here in SC, I will not only be casting it for myself, but for the man I never got to call Dad.

she passed away unexpectedly back in february and i can only imagine the types of conversations we would have had over the past few months. i always knew her as a staunch dem. she worked as a union organizer in nyc for (i think) close to 40 years. she was a delegate to the dnc in 1996. she met president clinton. she was die hard for hillary clinton before her death, but i know she would have put all her heart behind obama.
as an aside, dad's family is jewish and i wish grandma were here to smack the crap out of her middle son, who said he won't vote for obama because he's black.

"This country's finished," he said on Olbermann.
Although I believe this country will be great again, he seemed resigned to this sentiment, and there probably couldn't have been a more opportune time for his death.

My grandfather was an ultra-conservative Alabama racist who was still calling African-American men "boy" to their faces as recently as the 1980's. He died last year at 96 after suffering years of dementia. I wish he had lived long enough to see a black man elected President, and been lucid enough to understand what was happening.
I loved him, but his racism...ooh...:scared:...just awful!

He died a few months ago at the age of 55; found out he had cancer and two days later he died in ICU. He had voted for Hillary Clinton in the presidential preference primary, but had been really impressed with Barack Obama and had planned on voting for him in the General Election. He was pretty enthusiastic about Obama and it seemed as though Obama had the same effect on my dad as he does on me: he made him feel inspired and hopeful.
I remember sitting in the hospital just a few days before my dad died and we were talking about the direction the country had been going in and he had said he was really looking forward to a change. I wish he was alive today to vote for Obama and I wish he was alive to see Obama become our next President. My dad was a life-long Democrat. By no means was he perfect, he had his faults... but he always voted for the elected official he thought would be the best for his community or the best for our country as a whole and it would have been Obama this year.

53. Carlin? You've gotta be kidding... |
|
The man hated politicians. Sure, he was tougher on conservatives than on liberals but he still bashed the hell out of politicians in general. Given how cynical he was, I'm sure he held the same low opinion of Obama that held of every other politician. He is the greatest stand up comedian ever...or at least, I should say he's my personal favorite even if there's not a consensus on him being the greatest. :)

I am so sad about the past eight years but so happy that our country is going to start healing. There are so many people, whether named here or not, whose hearts would be gladdened by this if they were still here to see it... they would be happy for us, though, and that is some comfort in their absence.

70. My great grandfather.... |
|
Edited on Sat Nov-01-08 11:12 AM by endelfam
Back in the 1910's he intentionally sent my mom to an integrated school in Detroit because he said that, during her life, she would see black people step forward and take a full role in the government and society. He was a socialist and friend of Emma Goldman, and I am very proud of him.
Turns out great grandfather was right. My mother is 96 and, God willing, she will witness Obama's inauguration.
Our victories--the victories of the Democrats and the left in general--are built on the backs of many small but important supporters down through history. Obama is the next link in that chain.
Go OBAMA!
