Bill Richardson on the Daily Show Tonight

Currently I am still in the data collection period of deciding on who I support in 2008. To date I have mainly focused on Obama and Edwards, both of whom look good in Iowa polls and have considerable smarts and charm. Hillary looks good in the same polls and has smarts, but as one of her constituents, I can tell you she doesn't have much charm. I am unlikely to support Hillary in the primaries. Richardson is the latest one to come to my attention. I will write more about this in the future, but simply put, Richardson has the best resume. Absolutely excellent experience right down to nominations for Nobel Peace Prize. And, let's face it, Governors not Senators win the general election. He is trailing in the polls and, from what I hear, he lacks charm. But he is the one who could come up from behind.

So, for those who want to see more of our candidates, I try to highlight events that give you such opportunities. I think one of the best ways to see what a candidate has is the Daily Show with Jon Stewart. Sadly I seldom get the chance to see Jon Stewart because my wife and I generally don't stay up that late. But it is always worth ratching.

Tonight, Wednesday, March 28 at 11:00 PM ET/PT, Governor Bill Richardson will be on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart. Will he flop or shine? Will he wow with his resume or will he come off flat? Personally, I hope he rocks and picks up some support. I would be happy with a four way race for now.

Words to live by

The truth is that as a woman, a woman of color, and specifically an African American woman, the insults come so fast and furious that there’s always the danger of becoming overwhelmed and de-sensitized.

Sad to say, but I’m used to hearing black and brown women being call “bitch” “ho” “skank” “skeazer” “gold digger” or some variation of all of the above in popular songs and music videos. “Norbit,” Eddie Murphy’s current movie, may be the most recent example of a black man putting on a dress and playing the fat, ignorant, loud, brown-skinned black woman as an object of ridicule and revulsion, you can bet it won’t be the last. And check out “Flavor of Love,” VH1’s hit show in which women demean themselves in an effort to get Flava Flav - brought beneath low since his high as a member of the seriously political rap group Public Enemy - to choose them.

What these three have in common is that they demean black women, earn handsome profits for their corporate sponsors, and for the most part exist devoid of criticism.
