IT is time that the black media
stop using IOWA as an Obama can-
-win-white-votes rally and South
Carolina as an Obama can-win-black
votes rally.Since he won white
support in S.C. it was a clear
win. BUT until he address the
major league hard ball technnogical
topics link to new fields of
deeper atomic data, greater space
science and deeper mathematical
communications, areas of weakness
in the United States, he get no
d-- vote from me.HE is a rock
star with bad lyrics for tough
technological issues. Same can be
said of race-face hilary.
