Sen. Barack Obama gave an important speech today. It was either "the most important speech on race in 40 years" or it was "yes, it was nice....but...." I guess it depends on whether you are liberal or conservative. But I'm not sure who else could have given such a speech. I'm not religious but I really liked this portion of his speech:
In the end, then, what is called for is nothing more, and nothing less, than what all the world’s great religions demand – that we do unto others as we would have them do unto us. Let us be our brother’s keeper, Scripture tells us. Let us be our sister’s keeper. Let us find that common stake we all have in one another, and let our politics reflect that spirit as well.
