It is your civic duty to see that this does not happen again! Know your history! Know that your vote counts!
They stopped you then, only you can stop you now!
African Bill Of Sale
None of us has had to experience the pain of separation
or live with the disgrace and humiliation that comes
with not being free. When you cast your vote for who
will run our country, never forget your history and
keep this bill of sale in mind. When we allow ourselves
to forget our not so distant past, then we are destined
to repeat these actions in our future.
Stand for those who came before us and those who
could not stand up for themselves.
VOTE!
I encourage you to share this with everyone you know. Let this be a reminder!

ALASKA'S BIGGEST NEWSPAPER ENDORSES OBAMA:
'Palin's rise captivates us but nation needs a steady hand,' says Anchorage Daily News.
*The hometown newspaper of Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin says thanks, but no thanks by announcing its endorsement of her rival, Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama, for president.
"Gov. Palin's nomination clearly alters the landscape for Alaskans as we survey this race for the presidency -- but it does not overwhelm all other judgment," the paper stated Saturday. "The election, after all is said and done, is not about Sarah Palin, and our sober view is that her running mate, Sen. John McCain, is the wrong choice for president at this critical time for our nation."
"Sen. Barack Obama, the Democratic nominee, brings far more promise to the office," the paper continues. "In a time of grave economic crisis, he displays thoughtful analysis, enlists wise counsel and operates with a cool, steady hand. The same cannot be said of Sen. McCain."
The Daily News goes on to praise Obama for his plan of action involving the mortgage crisis, stating: "Sen. Obama warned regulators and the nation 19 months ago that the subprime lending crisis was a disaster in the making. Sen. McCain backed tighter rules for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, but didn't do much to advance that legislation. Of the two candidates, Sen. Obama better understands the mortgage meltdown's root causes and has the judgment and intelligence to shape a solution, as well as the leadership to rally the country behind it.
"It is easy to look at Sen. Obama and see a return to the smart, bipartisan economic policies of the last Democratic administration in Washington, which left the country with the momentum of growth and a budget surplus that President George Bush has squandered."
As for Gov. Palin, the Daily News says, "despite her formidable gifts, few who have worked closely with the governor would argue she is truly ready to assume command of the most important, powerful nation on earth. To step in and juggle the demands of an economic meltdown, two deadly wars and a deteriorating climate crisis would stretch the governor beyond her range. Like picking Sen. McCain for president, putting her one 72-year-old heartbeat from the leadership of the free world is just too risky at this time."

This may as well be the Michelle Obama newsletter site I've been writing about her for the last couple of weeks! Oh well!
Anywho, here's an email I thought you'd enjoy!
zelda --
There's nothing like being on the campaign trail with Barack -- right at the heart of the largest and most inspiring grassroots movement in the history of politics.
Our team put together a video that captures that energy, and I had to share it with you.
See what this movement is all about, then make your first donation of $5 or more before it's too late to make a difference.
It's taken a lot of hard work to get this far, but we still have millions of voters to contact in a very short time.
This week alone, we need to grow this movement by 100,000 new donors -- but we're almost there.
If you make your first donation before tonight's deadline, a previous donor will match your donation and double your impact.
Please watch this short video and make a matched donation of $5 or more for the change we need:
https://donate.barackobama.com/match
Barack will be the underdog until he's in the White House, so keep working, keep talking to your friends and neighbors, and together we can change the world.
Thank you for your commitment, passion, and hard work,
Michelle

More inspiration from my sister Michelle Obama!
Michelle is making headlines as soon to be First Lady of United States of America! Read this article from the Washington Post.
The old plantation where Michelle Obama's great-great-grandfather lived is tucked behind the tire stores and veterinary clinics of U.S. Highway 521. But its history and grounds have been meticulously preserved, down to the dikes that once controlled the flow of water into its expansive rice fields.
This Story
A Family Tree Rooted In American Soil
A Family's Exodus From Slavery
Not much is known about Jim Robinson, however, including how or when he came to Friendfield, as the property is still called. But records show he was born around 1850 and lived, at least until the Civil War, as a slave. His family believes that he remained a Friendfield worker all his life and that he was buried at the place, in an unmarked grave.
Until she reconnected with relatives here in January on a campaign trip, Obama did not know much about her ancestry, or even that Friendfield existed. As she was growing up in Chicago, her parents did not talk about the family's history, and the young Michelle Robinson didn't ask many questions.
But if her husband is elected president in November, he will not be the only one in the family making history. While Barack Obama's provenance -- his black Kenyan father, white Kansas-born mother and Hawaiian childhood -- has been celebrated as a uniquely American example of multicultural identity, Michelle Obama's family history -- from slavery to Reconstruction to the Great Migration north -- connects her to the essence of the African American experience.
To Rep. James E. Clyburn (D), whose district includes part of Georgetown County, the possibility that a descendant of slaves could be first lady is just as momentous as the prospect of a black man as president. "I believe she could play as pivotal a role as her husband could, if not more so. It would allow us an opportunity to get beyond some of our preconceived notions, some of our prejudices," he said.
Those who have studied African American history believe Michelle Obama's prominence could help bring to light the complexities of what Southern whites once called the "peculiar institution," now regarded as an indelible stain on the American conscience.
"It's good to be a part of playing out history in this way," Obama said in an interview at the campaign's Chicago headquarters. "It could be anybody. But it's us, it's our family, it's that story, that's going to play a part in telling a bigger story."
It is a process, she continued, of "uncovering the shame, digging out the pride that is part of that story -- so that other folks feel comfortable about embracing the beauty and the tangled nature of the history of this country."
Early this year, before Obama traveled to Georgetown to help her husband in the South Carolina primary, campaign aides began to interview her relatives and scour genealogical records, not sure of what they would discover. Later they enlisted help from historians to produce a detailed Robinson family tree.
Sheryll Cashin, a Georgetown University law professor and author of a book about her own Alabama family, says that for African Americans, there is nothing unique about the Robinson family. "I would venture to say that this is not an extraordinary story," said Cashin, a friend of Obama's. "It's an extraordinary story because it's been unearthed."
The Obama campaign agreed to cooperate for this article, as did Robinson family members who live in Georgetown and had previously declined all interview requests. Many had known parts of their family history but not the full odyssey, including details unearthed by The Washington Post in its own inquiries.

I am always inspired when I discover a new way to lose weight, the healthy way.
My weight has been an issue as long as I can remember. I recently found out a girlfriend of mine had been keeping a secret from me. I wondered why she was losing weight and looking so good! I knew she was NOT on a diet, because she doesn't do diets.
We go dancing weekly and she even dances all night long, and she weighs well over 300 pounds! Not anymore! Since she's been drinking this water, I can see her ankles as well as her waist (Never knew she had one!) is even showing now. She hasn't worn a belt in over 20 years I'm sure.
I'm not mad at her, but I think she could have told me about this water. I already knew about Alkaline water, and how it reduces the toxins in our systems. I already knew it was good for us, but with our busy lives, we sometimes forget what we know we need to do. I'd completely forgotten until I saw her a month ago and seen how she's dropped some weight with her new LIQUID WORKOUT! And she's not even swimming! All she's doing is drinking the water!
So now I am drinking the water. People are asking me the same question, what am I doing? I now say the same thing. I am drinking the water and having a LIQUID WORKOUT TOO! I don't exercise, all I do is walk (never enough) and drink plenty of this water, every hour on the hour!
I drink it when I have a headache, back ache, carpet tunnel. PMS and pretty much any other ailment I have. It just doesn't stop! Now you know why I feel the way I do and look the way I do. It's the water! Do yourself a favor and do the investigation yourself. DON'T BELEIVE A WORD I SAY! SEE FOR YOURSELF.
Visit the sites and watch your life, your health and your way of being turn into something you never even imagined. Here's to your health!
I'll drink to that!
P.S. Ask yourself this question, and then answer it!
Is the water you drink, making you sick?

This site above is information on whats people are saying about the water and how it helping people who has been drinking the water.

Sitting in his car, he just began to pray, 'God...If you still
speak to people, speak to me. I will listen. I will do my best to obey.'
As he drove down the main street of his town, he had the
strangest thought to stop and buy a gallon of m i lk.
He shook his head and said out loud, 'God is that you?' He
didn't get a reply and started on toward home.
But again, the thought, buy a gallon of milk.
The young man thought about Samuel and how he didn't recognize
th e voice of God, and how little Samuel ran to Eli.
'Okay, God, in case that is you, I will buy the milk.' It didn't
seem
like too hard a test of obedience. He could always use the milk.
He
stopped and purchased the gallon of milk and started off toward
home.
As he passed Seventh Street , he again felt the urge, 'Turn Down
that
street.'
This is crazy he thought, and drove on past the intersection.
Again, he felt that he should turn down Seventh Street .
At the next intersection, he turned back and headed down
Seventh.
Half jokingly, he said out loud, 'Okay, God, I will.'
He drove several blocks, w h en suddenly, he felt like he should
stop. He
pulled
over to the curb and looked around. He was in a semi- commercial
area
of town. It wasn't the best but it wasn't the worst of
neighborhoods
either.
The businesses were closed and most of the houses looked dark
like the
people were already in bed.
Again, he sensed something, 'Go and give the milk to the people
in the
house across the street.' The young man looked at the house.. It
was
dark and it looked like the people were either gone or they were
already asleep. He started to open the door and then sat back in
the
car seat .
'Lord, this is insane. Those people are asleep and if I wake
them up,
they a re going to be mad and I w ill look stupid.' Again, he
felt like
he should go and give the milk.
Finally, he opened the door, 'Okay God, if this is you, I will
go to
the door and I will give them the milk. If you want me to look l
ike a
crazy person, okay. I want to be obedient. I guess that will
count for
some thing, but if they don't answer righ t away, I am out of
here.'
He walked a cross the street and rang the bell. He could hear
some
noise inside. A man's voice yelled
out, 'Who is it? What do you want?' Then the door opened before
the
young man could get away.
The man was standing there in his jeans and T-shirt. He looked
like he
just got out of bed. He had a strange look on his face and he
didn't
seem too happy to have some stranger standing on his doorstep.
'What is
it?'
The young man thrust out the gallon of milk, 'Here, I brought
this to
you.' The man took the milk and rushed down a ha llway.
Then from down the hall came a woman carrying the milk toward
the
kitchen. The man was following her holding a baby. The baby was
crying.
The man had tears streaming down his face.
T he man began speaking and half crying, 'We were just praying.
We had
some big bills this month and we ran out of money. We didn't
have any
milk for our baby. I was just praying and asking God to show me
how to
get some milk.'
His wife in the kitchen yelled out, 'I asked him to send an
Angel with
some. Are you an Angel?'
The young man reached into his wallet and pulled out all the
money he
had on him and put in the man's hand. He turned and walked back
toward
his car and the tears were streaming down his face.
He knew that God still answers prayers.
THIS IS A SIMPLE TEST.... If you believe that God is alive and
well,
send this to at least ten people and the person that sent it to
you!!!!!!!!
This is so true. Sometimes it's the simplest things that God
asks us to
do that cause us, if we are obedient to what He's asking, to be
able to
hear. His voice m ore clear than ever. Please listen, and obey!
It will
bless you (and the world). Phil 4:13
This is an easy test - you score 100 or zero. It's your choice.
If you aren't ashamed to do this, please follow the directions.
The Lord God
said, 'If you are ashamed of me, I will be ashamed of you before
my Father.'
Not ashamed...Pass this on.

Those Born 1930-1979
READ TO THE BOTTOM FOR QUOTE OF THE MONTH BY JAY LENO. IF YOU DON'T READ ANYTHING ELSE---VERY WELL STATED
TO ALL THE KIDS WHO SURVIVED the 1930s, 40's, 50's, 60's and 70's!!
First, we survived being born to mothers who, while they were pregnant;
Took aspirin, ate blue cheese dressing, tuna from a can, and didn't get tested for diabetes.
Then after that trauma, we were put to sleep on our tummies in baby cribs covered with bright colored lead-based paints.
We had no childproof lids on medicine bottles, doors or cabinets and when we rode our bikes, we had no helmets, not to mention, the risks we took hitchhiking.
As infants &children, we would ride in cars with no car seats, booster seats, seat belts or air bags.
Riding in the back of a pick up on a warm day was always a special treat.
We drank water from the garden hose and NOT from a bottle.
We shared one soft drink with four friends, from one bottle and NO ONE actually died from this.
We ate cupcakes, white bread and real butter and drank Kool-aid made with sugar, but we weren't overweight because, WE WERE ALWAYS OUTSIDE PLAYING!
We would leave home in the morning and play all day, as long as we were back when the streetlights came on.
No one was able to reach us all day. And we were O.K.
We would spend hours building our go-carts out of scraps and then ride down the hill, only to find out we forgot the brakes. After running into the bushes a few times, we learned to solve the problem.
We did not have Playstations, Nintendo's, X-boxes, no video games at all, no 150 channels on cable, no video movies or D VD's, no surround-sound or CD's, no cell phones, no personal computer! s, no Internet or chat rooms........WE HAD FRIENDS and we went outside and found them!
We fell out of trees, got cut, broke bones and teeth and there were no lawsuits from these accidents.
We ate worms and mud pies made from dirt, and the worms did not live in us forever.
We were given BB guns for our 10th birthdays, made up games with sticks and tennis balls and, although we were told it would happen, we did not put out very many eyes.
We rode bikes or walked to a friend's house and knocked on the door or rang the bell, or just walked in and talked to them!
Little League had tryouts and not everyone made the team. Those who didn't had to learn to deal with disappointment. Imagine that!!
The idea of a parent bailing us out if we broke the law was unheard of. They actually sided with the law!
These generations have produced some of the best risk-takers, problem solvers and inventors ever!
The past 50 years have been an explosion of innovation and new ideas. We had freedom, failure, success and responsibility, and we learned HOW TO DEAL WITH IT ALL!
If YOU are one of them, CONGRATULATIONS!
You might want to share this with others who have had the luck to grow up as kids, before the lawyers and the government regulated so much of our lives for our own good.
While you are at it, forward it to your kids so they will know how brave (and lucky) their parents were.
Kind of makes you want to run through the house with scissors, doesn't it?!
The quote of the month is by Jay Leno:
'With hurricanes, tornados, fires out of control, mud slides, flooding, severe thunderstorms tearing up the country from one end to another, and with the threat of bird flu and terrorist attacks, are we sure this is a good time to take God out of the Pledge of Allegiance?'
For those that prefer to think that God is not watching over us...go ahead and delete this.
For the rest of us...pass this on.

The real reason that we can't have the Ten Commandments posted in a courthouse is this: You cannot post "Thou Shalt Not Steal," "Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery," and "Thou Shall Not Lie" in a building full of lawyers, judges, and politicians...It creates a hostile work environment...
I met this guy while I was in Albuquerque and he has
a motto he lives by everyday. He said listen carefully and
live by these 4 rules: Drink, Steal, Swear, & Lie.
I was shaking my head 'no', but he then told me to listen
while he explained his four rules. So here they are:
1.. 'Drink' from the 'everlasting cup' every day.
2.. 'Steal' a moment to help someone that is in worse shape
than you are.
3.. 'Swear' that you will be a better person today than
yesterday.
4.. And last, but not least, when you 'lie' down at night
thank God you live in America and have freedom.
I am not as good as I should be, I am not as good
as I could be but THANK GOD
I am better than I used to be !
"Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good. His love endures forever."
Psalm 136:1
Very interesting!
This is a true story, so read it carefully. On April 24, 2008 , I stopped at a Kangaroo BP gas station, located at 1325 Main Street , Cartersville , GA. My truck's gas gauge was on 1/4 of a tank. I use the mid-grade, which was priced at $3.71 per gallon. When my tank is at this point, it takes somewhere around 14 gallon's to fill it up.
When the pump showed 14 gallons had been pumped I began to slow it down, then to my surprise it went to 15, then 16. I even looked under my truck to see if it was being spilled. It was not. Then it showed 17 gallons had been pumped. It stopped at almost 18 gallons. This was very strange to me, since my truck has only an 18 gallon tank. I went on my way a little confused, then on the evening news I heard a report that 1 out of 4 gas stations had calibrated their pumps to show more gas had been pumped than a person actually got.
Here is how to check a pump to see if you are getting the right amount:
Whichever grade you are using, put EXACTLY 10 GALLONS in your tank, then look at the dollar amount, if the dollar amount is not EXACTLY 10 times the price of the fuel you have chosen, then the pumps are rigged. In my case as I said the mid-grade was $3.71 9/10 per gallon, my dollar amount for 10 gallons should have been $37.19. If I had only check the pump. It doesn't matter where you pump gas, please check the 10 gallon price. If you do find a station that is cheating, contact the State Agriculture Department.
Please don't delete this until you have sent it to all people in your address book. We need to put a stop to this outrageous cheating of customers. The gas companies are making enough profits at honest rates.

I often have no idea of what I am going to write to inspire you. That's because I've learned over the years that true inspiration comes from within. Now is one of those moments.
As I write, I'm waiting for whatever needs to come through me, to share with you. I've already written a colum for ZeldaSpeaks.com, in which I wrote about how the holidays sometimes depress some people.
I don't want to write the same thing because I cherish the time you spend seeking something new while reading our colums. I appreciate the fact that you're looking for something different. Most appreciate something different, something unique, something that makes them go "Ohhh! I never looked at it this way, or Wow! Now that makes sense! or better yet, It makes no sense at all, but it does sound interesting. Maybe I'll try that!"
It's this kind of thinking that makes me want to continue to write. Sometimes I need help. Now is one of those times. I need you to drop me an email and let me know what's on your mind. What issues would you like me to address in this column?
You probably say, "You're the writer." Yes I am, but I feed off of you. So, what will it be?
Until next week, Stay on purpose, stay empowered!
