OBAMA'S GRANDMOTHER DIES: 'Tomorrow' ain't promised

No matter what, Wednesday will be "a great wakin' up morning in America".

We may have Barack Obama as our next President. Or we may not.

That all depends on how the actual voter turn-out turns out.

Whatever the final count(s) reached in this election, if you can say you voted you can claim credit for real change.

If the numbers of "change" advocates at the polls is anywhere close to what's expected, this nation will forever be transformed.

And we'll have Mrs. Dunham to thank for raising a grandson with the spine of steel needed to help change the course of history.

He's the dearly departed's precious gift to all of us whoever felt powerless to make a difference.

How do we repay pillars like her, who thought they'd go to their glory convinced that no black man would ever rise high enough to come close to becoming Commander in Chief. Much less winning.

If you can't carry someone sick or shut-in to the vote, at least reach out and keep them posted about the turnout and returns. Take pictures to show them later on.

But not much later. Share this lasting moment with them while you still can.
