Barack Obama's epic win

The young senator makes history not only in terms of race, while a determined Hillary Clinton delays the inevitable a bit longer.

    @karenn

    In your mind, anybody who has a real job, who actually uses her law degree is evil. When Bill and Hillary arrived in Washington in 1992, they weren't millionaires like the Obamas.

    ----------------------

    My point is Obama chose to work closely with the people when he could have been on his way to being a millionaire. Only after 2 best selling books did he get money so please save it. Only person who said anything about evil is you.

    Dont assume to know my mind, because when you assume....well you should know the rest
