A Hope for Barack
As the race for the Democratic presidential nominee tightens and becomes more polarized, here's hoping that Barack will continue to hold the high ground, not giving in to the temptation to go for the jugular. Part of what has drawn me to him is his seemingly earnest desire to move beyond the present culture wars, build bridges between blacks and whites, republicans and democrats, the U.S. and its enemies.
If, under the pressure of the moment, he descends into politics as usual, then, what the hell, why not just vote for Hillary?
