Be The Difference You Want To See In The World

My story began in 2008, during the same period that President-Elect, Barack Obama, was preparing for his historic transition to become the first African-American President of The United States of America. His dramatic rise to the Presidency fostered a sense of excitement in the country and it centered around one powerful word: Change. Little did I know at the time that the word "change" would be a central theme for me, my family and my home town of Monroe, Louisiana. The type of change Obama cam… Continue

This road to victory which began over 200 years ago started in Africa when people were taken from their lands and brought to this country in chains and irons to become slaves to a people they did not know or even understood. This road to victory was paved on the backs of those who worked the fields, helped to build this country from the ground, and have left their blood, sweat and tears in the grounds of these the United States of America.

Ramifications of Homeschooling

Hello,
My name is Doris Anne Beaulieu. I have a website-Life’s Ultimate Test dot com-on which you can learn more about my mission to change the face of home schooling.
I attended a parochial school as a child in the 1950's. In this Catholic school I was sheltered from the realities of the world around me-from swearing, from public displays of affection, from slang. These are often some of the same things that modern home schooling parents aim to protect their children from. A superior court judg… Continue

Blood-Democracy

My hope & dream is to find a globe of peace where human being is not subjected to die in hunger, without health-care or political oppressions rather then to enjoy fair-freedom and true-democracy but the past shows us the action of blood-communism, blood-democracy, blood-diamond, blood-oil, blood-occupation, blood-power and blood-jihad practices tragedy & threat to mankind while Obama is the change in the way in sustaining green global peace serving as a good-friend of the world respectin… Continue

something I did not really think of.

I just wanted to share what happened one day in the apartment complex we lived in. My daughter was walking then and she was so curious and always into everything. I can remember she was probably around 2 years old then. We went outside to play on the patio we shared with other tenants and I talked with the guy upstairs alot when he brought his daughter outside to play. One day he was leaning over the balcony asking me "How it was going" when my daughter said "Mommy, James is brown" I said yea ba… Continue

NO WINNER, NO LOSER

C-O-N-G-R-A-T-U-L-A-T-I-O-N-S!!!! It is a wonderful thing that the democratic primaries have come to an end and the nominee is Barack Obama. This is a new page folks and the world is already experiencing an aura of acceptance in anticipation of the good tidings we expect. I believe that this is the right time to rally around Obama to enable him win the general elections. My advise for Hilary is that she should sheath her sword because this contest has brought out the best of her - an indefatigab… Continue

BARACK OBAMA: THE SYMBOL OF UNITY & COLOR OF LOVE

I watched with keen interest the current debate of RACISM as regards Pastor Wright's comment. I saw the hullaballoo(in the two camps) and was scared about the division, hatred and failure such a debate could portend for the Democrats if not handled with care.
Once again, it was time for Barack Obama to respond to what seem to be a controversial topic. One that could make him or mar him in this campaign trail as he heads towards Pensylvannia in April to ask for voters support.
When Obama came on… Continue
