as far as "the cynics are wrong" essay I think that is very true. I find it interesting, now, post election I am not as interested in obama because he is the president, as in I dont' find it as wonderful to watch him on t.v. or want to watch him all the time, it doesn't have the same thrill right now.
what I do want to do is keep on on politics, hows it going, so whats he doing, what is the commentary; and my daughter too as asked me to keep her updated (as I tend to be more hooked into that kind of thing) of the reality of what he does and how things are going.
its changed my reading some on preparing for possibilities if childrens issues ever got more funded, he said he favored the harlems children empowerment zone before, as a model to bring to 20 cities including baltimore, and I am not exactly sure about that, have initial criticisms of it, keep trying to ask people in nyc (who don't know or dont' answer me) what is this? So its changed some of my activism, to be aware or, and I had before hope, that there could me more energy for social good, to keep it abridge in my work.
i still like him, like in a personal way, and am currious, and not sure. but now he is a president, I dont' really like him in the same way as he was fighting for something that never happened before excitement.
