What happens the day after Obama________________?
On Friday we watched a video of Byron Pitts speaking at the TABS Banquet. During the time of us watching this tape I kind of felt like I was back in church from the way he was giving his speech, rather then at a banquet. They way he delivered his speech caught many of the people in the audience attention from the responses being "yessss", "alright now" and many more of that nature. Even though his deliverance threw me off a little bit I still felt where he was coming from in his message. The most interesting part of his speech was when he stated that " Everyone who is your color is not your kind". This valid statement made me think of how many times my mother has told me just because you are black dosent mean that you can trust everyone else who is your same color, because they will stab you in the back just as well as the white man or the mexican, or even the Arab man. If I had to fill in the sentence What Happens the day after Obama _____before the actually election it would have stated, What happens the day after Obama is our 44th president of the United States. I beleive in what Byron said in his speech, Claim your dreams and speak truth into them. I knew Obama was going to be my president there was never a doubt in my mind that he didnt have it in the bag. I feel that Barack Obama followed the B.E.G.theroy, that Byron explained. Begin, Endure, and Gain. He began in harvard starting off fighting for political corectness, then he endured many trials and tribulations to get to where he needed to be and now he has gained the position of our 44th president of the united states of america. This speech that Byron pitts made touched me more with his word then his deliverance. I recommend that people pay close attention to many of his words if you ever get the chance to hear him speak.
