November 4, 2008 will be a day that the nation and the world will remember forever. All of those who voted got to say they made history by voting in the nation’s most controversial election. But what most people won’t be able to say is that they worked the polls. Most voters can’t say that they were a part of the process to help get the President into the White House, like many of the people who worked the polls to make sure that the process went as smoothly as possible.

Holiday shopping is about to begin. As I read the stories in this edition,especially the one about the Nyaka School, I begin to cringe at the thought of overspending this Christmas.

Dear Readers,
A new President will be in the White House. It’s interesting to me that even in my short lifetime. I’ve seen so many things happen that show the world is changing for the better.

Not Black President Obama, Just President Obama
President-elect Barack Obama never made race an issue in his presidential bid. Perhaps that’s why he earned the endorsements of the likes of Colin Powell and Hollywood celebrities, and won over the media, writes NAM contributor Earl Ofari Hutchinson.

I was recently reading an article on Black PR Wire and recalled an interview that I had with a reporter at the “State of Our Health: Through the Voices of Our People” symposium. The reporter asked me which Presidential candidate, John McCain or Barack Obama had the best health care plan. I said neither because we need a health care plan now to deal with issues that are escaping the politicians. I don’t understand why Congress isn’t working harder to deal with these issues. Readers, if you’re in a job and uninsured or even if you’re in a job and insured by a third party, please note the best thing that you can do is to vote. Readers, if you’re paying a large portion of your paycheck to a hospital because you waited too long to go to the doctor, please vote.
