Black in Business, “The Future is All About You, and Youth”

On Sunday, February 24, 2008; at Chicago’s McCormick Center, close to 20,000 mostly black followers of “The Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan, gathered in celebration of the Nation of Islam’s Saviors Day. Minister’s Farrakhan’s address, “The Gods At War,” offered a compelling overview of current times. The Minister lead a spellbound audience through facts and figures as an assemblage to help our understanding of the world, past present and future. Every citizen should seek out the audio tape of this address. Granted Minister Farrakhan is a figure surrounded in controversy but one could not help to think, what an asset he could be to the United States as an advisor to President Bush.
Here are some highlights.
President Bush new budget calls for spending of 3.1 trillion dollars!
The US collects a total of 2.0 trillion dollars after the Bush Tax cuts in revenue.
We have to borrow the rest of out budget from formerly third world economies.
There was a time when you could dress your self, head to toe in goods made in the USA.
We, the USA, are now a third world economy, since we a unequal trade balance, we have become a service economy and are no longer a manufacturing economy.
The value of the dollar is at an all time low, gold a all time high.
The money in our pockets is losing value.
America is for sale, some of the best properties in our country are being sold to foreign governments.
Our jobs are over seas, the banking industry is collapsing.
It is time for change.
Barack Obama has inspired the world that he may save America.
The Senator is the one to bring us all together and because of his heritage he loves all people.
Some may ask “Is he black enough!” Obama visited his grand mother in Kenya, you cannot get ant blacker than that! He was raised by white grand parents in Kansas, he is truly a African American!
The world will trust Obama.
With out vision we will parish. There is no experience to prepare for solving the problems we have, it takes vision.
The majority of the world is people of color, what an advantage Obama would have in Foreign Policy.
Obama could be the Messiah.
Satan’s reign is over; The God’s have sent Obama to bring people together, regardless of race, color, political affiliation, age or experience.
The world can change for the better but it will take a visionary leader.
Farrakhan did not endorse he did not want to harm the campaign of Obama.
Minister asked the audience to pray for the safety of Obama and his family.

These highlight are based on mental notes I took from Minister Farrakhan’s 2 hour speech. Please visit the Nation of Islam’s web site for more detail and the ability to purchase the audio tape. If you have never listened to Farrakhan you will be surprised at his compassion, understanding and incredible intellect and charm.
In closing, there was a international federation for peace panel on the stage with Minister Farrakhan. There was also a youth Islamic group of national leaders that helped deliver this program. Every body was well dressed and humble but very generous in giving during the collection period. Many thousand dollars was collected in a 30 minute time frame.
This was truly an extraordinary event given by an extraordinary person providing insight to the true mess we are in as a nation but offering hope for the future.

  2. Jim Walton Says:

    Justinottawa, thanks for commenting, I agree Obama is the next President, regarding Bush, Obama may be the same or better, worse? Impossible!

    It could get worse with Obama in office…we won’t know until it happens. My preference is change, and I think Obama is going to bring it.

    The Minister always makes valid, legitimate statements (the one about the dollar losing value-this statement alone should be making folks holler!!!). And I don’t always agree with everything he says. But I respect the fact that he has an opinion, and is not scared to share it. We don’t have many ‘innovative thinkers’ around who are not afraid of being labeled politically incorrect, and I value his honesty, and his ability to continue to move his followers (and others) to question those at the top and to help those at the bottom.

    HILLARY CLINTON IS A BOLD FACE LIAR!!
    WATCH THE YOUTUBE VIDEO TITLED: “THE SHOCKING VIDEO HILLARY DOES NOT WANT YOUR TO SEE”.
    THE VIDEO CONCERNS HILLARY CAMPAIGN FINANCING FRAUD, WITH A MAN NAMED PETER PAUL. THIS CASE IS CURRENTLY IN COURT IN CALIFORNIA. SOMEHOW THE MAIN STREAM MEDIA HAS DECIDED NOT TO TELL THE WHOLE TRUTH ABOUT HILLARY CLINTON!! Hillary Clinton is facing a Campaign Finance Fraud case in court in California. Apparently she had a man named Peter Paul do a fund raising event for her U.S. Senator election campaign, raising $1.2 million dollars for her. After it was revealed that Peter Paul had a criminal background, Hillary lied about knowing him, or receiving $1.2 millions in campaign financing from him. She also filed documents with the FEC, and did not report the $1.2 million dollars she had received from the campaign fundraiser, WHICH IS A FELONY.
    VIDEO evidence, and PHONE CALL evidence, and LETTERS evidence (as seen in the youtube video) is going to be presented in court in California in his lawsuit against Hillary Clinton, and she will most likely be charged with a felony.

    The mainstream press has for some reason been ignoring this story fact, but it is for us to search out the truth.
    It is imparitive that people know this information before they vote, because Hillary, with yet another fraud case pending, where there is physical proof of her participatig in the fraud, on video tape, will NOT become president, and will be prosecuted!

    Democrats need to know the facts so they don’t waste their votes on this dishonest woman who will not make it to the White House. This information is in the public domain, and the courts, and the Republicans will surely use it during the general election.

    WE DO NOT WANT TO PUT ANOTHER PATHELOGICAL LIAR LIKE HILLARY, AND HER ACCOMPLICE, HER LYING HUSBAND, THE WORST LYING PRESIDENT TO DATE, BILL CLINTON, BACK IN THE WHITE HOUSE.

    THE YOUTUBE VIDEO IS A MUST SEE: IT’S CALLED –”THE SHOCKING VIDEO HILLARY CLINTON DOES NOT WANT YOU TO SEE”,
    DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR VOTE ON THIS DISGRACEFUL WOMAN, VOTE FOR SOMEONE WITH INTEGRITY.

  6. Soli Says:

    Obama may be the next messiah of the US, but are we even sure he is going to get there?

  7. Jim Walton Says:

    Hi Steve, I did see the video and it raises questions.

  8. Jim Walton Says:

    Soli, I think Obama has a real chance to win!

  9. driving traffic to your web site Says:

    Despite of all the news out there, I really do believe that Obama still has a good chance to win this.

    I am excited to see how everything turns out. This is indeed a critical moment for our nation.
