All,
Attached below is a beautiful collage of photos that chronicle the life of Obama - his truly American story that the conservative media doesn't want to tell. Nothing in these photos speaks of the elitism, anti-Americanism, Communism, or any other negative "-isms" that conservatives would have the American people believe. They portray humbleness, a strong sense of family bond, and a man who embraces his lineage - African and European.
Now, could these be "cherry-picked" photos? Of course they could, and they probably have been hand-selected by the Obama family. But just take a hard look at them - individually and collectively. The cliché "a picture is worth a 1000 words" comes to mind, but there are a few words/phrases that don't make the list based on these pictures:
silver-spoon, privileged, politically connected, elitist, anti-white, terrorist, baby-mamma, uppity, identity-crisis........
these are just a handful of the epithets and insinuations used by certain people and media outlets to "color" Mr. and Mrs. Obama. But. what the pictures do illustrate is the human experience that many of us do know - blended families (with grandparents heavily involved), struggling mothers, not having anything simply handed to you, having the odds stacked against you, succeeding in-spite-of, not forgetting your roots, discovering the love of your life, and being the best parent you can be.
Please share this with any and everybody - - the more we counter the enemy with truth, the more balanced we can make the political playing field. Then we can continue to get the focus back on the real issues worth debating. Those are arguments that Obama will clearly win.
Peace,
Mike Spriggs
