Given the news today that New Mexico Governor and former presidential candidate Bill Richarson is set to endorse Barack Obama, let's take another look at this photo of Richardson and Bill Clinton watching this year's Super Bowl together.

(Clinton reportedly paid a visit, in an effort to secure Richardson's endorsement for Hillary.)

Ms. Chideya, Peace Be Upon You:

Often you will have on you program the NPR Radio/Fox News political-social analyst Juan Williams. His voiced opinions, I feel, are often wrong but entertaining.

I would like you to consider having a Mr. Roland Martin on your show along with Mr. Williams, or any conservative commentator, in order to provide a point counter point conversation.

The many times I have seen Mr. Martin on CNN or heard him on WVON Radio out of Chicago have been brisk and refreshing. His fact based delivery usually enlightens the audience and confounds those who seek to convey specious arguments with the hope of infecting our fellow countrymen with sufficient doubt, distrust, and resentment to cloud the mind and blur the vision.

For if we, individually and collectively, consider the social, political, and economic circumstances of America, and in deed the world, with clear minds and keen vision we will see the commonality of our struggles and triumphs; then perhaps we can do more to work for a common goal that is not dependant on the oppression of our fellow human beings.
