The Hardest Working Prez the United States of America has ever had

Perhaps it is because he is the first Black President, he works so hard. He knows that upon his shoulders rest the burden of role model for Blacks all over the world and how he does in the White House will be reflected on all Blacks for generations to come. He wants to do well and he is. He wants to be honest and he is. It is the one think I like and admire about this man. He honestly believe in what he is doing and to be that is the measure of the man. He wants to honour his promise to the American people. Like those who develop their bucket lists, Obama has his list of promises and I can see him ticking each one as it is accomplished. He is firm and is not distracted by those who choose to attend Tea parties and rallies while enjoying the benefit of income assistance through programs he has introduced. He is not distracted by those who are waiting to put their foot out to trip him as he runs to serve the American people. Nothing will trip him, he will just jump right over your feet and keep on trucking for that's who he is.

I received this in my email and I thought I should share it with you and you can share it if you are so inclined

I Folks, If you have not noticed....few Presidents have ever worked this hard for our country, having to deal with such hatred and ill-will. Many wonder, does he ever sleep? Only God can sustain such energy, knowledge and person. Will you please join in this prayer?



Lord,
We pray for optimum health, mental clarity and political prosperity for President Barack H. Obama. We pray that what he lacks in political 'experience' you make up for with supernatural wisdom and power.

We also pray that when his enemies come upon him they will stumble and fall; and that your love will fill his heart to the end that 'Your will' be done through him.

We pray mightily for his protection. As we plead the Blood of your son, Jesus, over him and his family. We reverently ask you to dispatch legions of angels to protect them from all hurt, harm, danger as he serves as the President of the United States of America .

We thank you and praise you for answering our sincere prayers, in Jesus' precious name,

AMEN
All you are asked to do is keep this circulating if you are so inclined.
May God bless and keep you...

Why It Matters That Obama Marked "Black" On His Census Form | | AlterNet

President Obama created a bit of a stir in early April when he completed his Census form. In response to the question about racial identity the president indicated he was "Black, African American or Negro." Despite having been born of a white mother and raised in part by white grandparents, Obama chose to identify himself solely as black even though the Census allows people to check multiple answers for racial identity
