If black people automatically vote for black candidates, why didn;t Jesse Jackson get to the White House back in the 80s?
This race card you're playing is getting increasingly tattered. To those who worry about black voters gloating, once again, I point you to the history of America. These people witnessed racism at a level which we simply couldn't fathom in this country and now they have a black President.
If you can't understand this, no problem. Not everyone needs to understand everyone's point of view, but trust me...it's huge. I have cousins in Philadelphia. I called them last night, and my aunt couldn't come to the phone because she was in floods of tears.
Pure joy. I still get a tingle thinking about it. We may have got the first female PM, but they've beaten us to the first non-white leader.
No problem...we'll get the first leader with learning difficulties...David Cameron.
Compostella - the MOBOs...what would you call an award show which covers blues, sould, R&B, urban, hip hop, jazz, techno, swing and dancehall.
Me and some mates tried to come up with an alternative name to the MOBOs.
We failed.
I challenge you to think of a simple alternative.
You won't be able to.
And there's your answer.
