Kanye Being Real!!

Yes i feel he has a point because white people are still hating on the black ever since they became free and got equal rights. I wonder why some white people still hate us blacks just for being black and even more now since we have a black man in office. There should not be any tensions between races after all the things we have been through. Yes kanye was by all means using his 1st amendment righ to the fullest and if he feeels the way he feels then there is nothing wrong with that 2 me. The media is slandering him because he spoke out in front of a white performer. if she would have been white or mexican , no one would have said anything. Since she was white they was all on him getting on his case, tryna make a case, whn the only thing he was doing was being a regular american citizen with a voice and an opinion

obama speech

obama gave a speech today on education in the US. obama stressed the importance of being responsible for your education and also about setting goals in your life and striving hard to achieve them. i think that not only kids should listen to what obama said in this speech but also the adults, everyone should be responsible for their own education and that they should make goals and stick with them. obama used some great examples of people who had goals and plans that they set for them selves and did not quit on them and how they took responsiblilty as a student and worked hard for their education. obama says you shouldnt quit on your goals no matter how hard times get. i think kids all over understood what obama was tryin to tell them and were inspire to do better. kids on the local news said they got alot out of it meaning others prolly did to. i think this is monumental because it only takes one spark to start a fire and today obama has given the kids of the the US a great spark that hopefully starts a major fire within them to strive to do better...

Is the Constitution really as useful as we as citizens are led to believe? Explain why.

I think the constitution is as useful as we are led to believe because without it we would be lost. Everything we have done with the goverment has been based on the constitution. If it was not for the constitutuion we would not be in the great place we are in now. the constitution has save lifes, granted freedoms and help protected this country for years so i believe it has been as useful as the government says it is.
