Obama's South Carolina Speech...

Reminds me of something one would hear in black South Africa. 

That kind of optimistic rhetoric is the way many of the black people I've met talk about politics. They talk about shared goals, shared responsibilities, and their hopes for the future. 

But when you talk to white people, all they talk about are the problems in their country: AIDS, theft, and homicide.
