oh! my brain is about to explode. such big decisions and no idea how to make them. who do i pick? barack or hillary? clinton or obama? and those are the only two choices available to me. i watch the tv, i read the news, i know how i, as a black woman, am supposed to behave. it's one or the other and, whomever i pick, i better be able to justify why i didn't pick the other.
sorry? issues? what issues? obviously hillary has my best interests at heart, as a woman, and well, i could say the same thing about barack and interests as a black person. otherwise the media wouldn't be plunking those in front of me as my two choices. and today i almost got waylaid - i spotted john edwards on the television talking and i thought - hmmm, interesting. but before i got too carried away, i caught myself quickly. silly pandave! focus on your choices, they are difficult enough already. just choose what you feel more of - a woman or a black person. forget health issues, tax issues or any other issues other people are supposed to be concerned about. focus!
and man, don't i feel sorry for the white man. i mean first you have to decide democrat or republican and then on either side there are just a bunch of white men trying to get your vote. how do you do it? how do you decide? i'm thinking i'm the lucky one.
