Hi Peeps,

So I went out to sushi @ the local Korean run Japanese Restaurant that even plays korean pop(kpop)… but of course they only spoke English to us since they weren’t really sure if we were of the same ethnicity since we only spoke English… ; P

So as I was toasting my mom with the empty Saki bottle(no I wasn’t drunk, it was the small bottle that I shared with my mom) and said something along the lines of “Congrats to McCain for winnning…!” and my mom was like “No way…” ; P

And so we continued our earlier conversation from earlier in the day before she went and took my younger sister to the dentist…

It’s interesting that tonight they were talking so much about the first african-american being elected as President-Elect… um, he’s still half-white… and he’s not even American Black, he’s actually half African Black… half Kenyan.

I would think it would be awesome historically if there was a “real” African American running. One whose ancestors were born here in the US.

I’m wondering if this is the most racist election in recent history… blacks voting for a black President. And white people voting for a black president. Let me re-word that… Black people only voting for Barack Obama for being Black. And white people voting from some sense of guilt from whites’ past sins?

It’s a serious and legitimate question.

I heard this point from an American. He doesn’t call himself an African American & doesn’t refer to himself as a Black man, just American. He states that Martin Luther King’s hopes for equal rights for all men and women is dead. Because certain Americans will vote for Obama based solely on his skin colour(color for my American friends…; P)…

This isn’t really a civil Rights type of victory in my eyes. He’s not fully black. He’s not multi-generationally rooted in America(on the African side). Could you say that it’s HALF a Civil Rights Victory…?

I do make a distinction between Black Americans. Oh wait that’s not Politically Correct to say… African Americans. My bad. I make a distinction between them and African FOBs. <==what they used to call certain Asians back in the day... "Fresh Off the Boat".

I used to see all these Africans trying to look like the and pass as the people descended from the African slaves. By the way. Don't just blame the "whiteys" for Slavery in America. It's the Africans who sold their own African people to the white slave-traders. Think about that.

And did you even know about the WHITE people who arrested the WHITE slave traders and PAID to send those slaves back to Africa? You never hear about that now do you? Nope.

Back to the wannabe American Blacks... the born-in-Africa guys would hang out @ Metrotown(before it was called Metropolis) and try to act all Gangsta and emulate gang-bangers, rappers, you know, the stereo-typical black male in the US... it was funny.

I find it weird how the US Elections work... When you look at the Popular Vote versus The Electoral Votes... wow, can we say discrepency? It's so different than our system in Canada. Plus how every State is in charge of the way things are run with voting stations and what machines are used, etc.
Canada has a Federal Level way of doing our elections. A much better and smoother system for sure.

Now I am impressed at what Barack Hussein Obama was able to do. Bringing in mucho deneiro, beaucoup bucks, lots od money honey... you get the picture. Even with all the character issues. Like agreeing to public campaign financing & then pulling out of that agreement with John McCain. And his views on all the moral issues. And so much more. You know, all the issues that were brought up but the DNC & Obama constantly dismissed... many that were not answered satisfactorily.

I do wonder about what would have happened if there was no Economic Crisis, mortgage meltdown, etc.

I wonder if Jesse Jackson(did you see him all teared-up?) or Al Sharpton will relent with their rhetoric and rants versus "White America"? Or will they be even more emboldened and point out more and stir up more racial us versus them talk?

What will people think now that Obama - SORRY I skipped this part and now don’t recall what I was going to write here… OOPS!!! ; P

Sadly, race really should not matter. Maybe one day we will see that day when race really doesn’t matter. It will be about character. It will be about integrity. It will be about truth. It will be about things that really matter. But I really doubt it.

A funny yet sad statement that a French news woman(can’t recall her exact position or media expertise) but she was talking about how Europeans are seeing Obama as “The Messiah” and that the US must elect a Black President, basically to show the world that it’s not a racist country… Now her following statement is very telling… “We would never, ourselves, elect a Black President or Prime Minister”(paraphrased)…

Now that Americans have voted for a half-black President what will happen in the next Presidential Election? Will a Woman Win for the First Time? Canada’s has a female Prime Minister and England(UK) had Margaret Thatcher as their leader(Prime Minister) for ~ 11 1/2 years from 1979-1990. Is the U.S. next? Will it be Sarah Palin? That would be exciting. Clinton versus Palin in 2012? Guess Obama would have to really botch the job… or something whacked out happened within the next four years…

Now the thing ALL of us have to do(yes, even us Canadians) is to PRAY for Barack Obama. Pray for WISDOM. Pray for the Economy. Pray for Abortion on demand & partial abortions to be aborted(the only way this word should be used… to STOP something detestable). Pray that the right Judges are Appointed.

I wonder how many Americans know about the absolutely rich Christian History of the USA, a great Heritage to be proud of. God Bless America. Do you really believe this when you say it? Do you really want God to Bless America? Do you believe in God? Do you believe in what God holds as absolutely precious?

Have you read about the Founding Fathers? The ones who signed the Declaration of Independence?
The Framers of The Bill of Rights? The early settlers? the Pilgrims and The Puritans? What timeless values did they value?

Have you read the Constitution?

Have you ever wondered why there is so much going wrong with America today?

It goes beyond just who the current or next President will be.

Are you ignoring history? What made America great? Have the “modern” Americans learned any lessons from their history?

We are living in exciting times. May God Bless Us Everyone. And yes, even Barack Hussein Obama. ; P

God Bless America. And God Bless Canada. And God Bless You!

Love and all that good stuff,
Yoon

P.S. My mom just asked “how come all these people only have daughters, no sons…?” while Gov. Christine Gregoire is doing her “thank you” speech & introducing her fam… what is up with that? Where are all the politicians’s sons? Are they just having girls…? ; P
