2. The first time I heard Barak Obama speak I thought to myself
"This guy has the potential to be the first black president," and I was dead serious in the thought. There's just something about him.

3. I'm dead serious too.
Do I think she has much chance? No. But I do think she is most deserving. I think she's a national treasure. Obama is wonderful, but has not yet even served, much less gone out on a limb the way McKinney did.

6. The Congressman from Tennesse
Harold(?) Ford, Jr. He's still a little young to have a realistic chance to run, though.

7. Barak Obama
I liked Ford, but Obama has that extra zing. It'll be him, no doubt in my mind.
