How you look is only important if that's all you've got to offer.
In this video, where Obama takes questions at Google.... the intro is something like, "senator Obama is the product of a Kansas mother and a father from Kenya, born in Hawaii...your history of course.. Columbia, then Harvard, state senator, then senator. welcome to Google..." the first question Eric asks him is, "when you see yourself in the presidency... what is it you are going to do that is exceptional. what is your reason that you think this country is going to be a great country?"I don't like country or acid rock. I do like lots of rock, trance, Electronic, Classical, R&B, Dance, House....
It's in storage up in my cottage. I don't think I've turned it on to watch anything for several months now.
I like to read. I have a pile of books waiting and usually I'm reading 2-3 at a time. I'm reading Free Lunch: How the Wealthiest Americans Enrich Themselves at Government Expense (and Stick You with the Bill) just at the moment, but by the time you read this I'll have finished and will have forgotten to update this.

by Dr. Kent M. Keith
People are illogical, unreasonable, and self-centered.
Love them anyway.
If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish ulterior motives.
Do good anyway.
If you are successful, you will win false friends and true enemies.
Succeed anyway.
The good you do today will be forgotten tomorrow.
Do good anyway.
Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable.
Be honest and frank anyway.
The biggest men and women with the biggest ideas can be shot down by the smallest men and women with the smallest minds.
Think big anyway.
People favor underdogs but follow only top dogs.
Fight for a few underdogs anyway.
What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight.
Build anyway.
People really need help but may attack you if you do help them.
Help people anyway.
Give the world the best you have and you'll get kicked in the teeth.
Give the world the best you have anyway.
