Vandals Deface Obama Mural in Atlanta

Merchants around the Little Five Points community in Atlanta want to know who defaced a painting of presidential candidate Barack Obama (video: MyFoxAtlanta). Only a few hours after the artwork went up, vandals did serious damage to it.

People must really think that Obama has a REAL CHANCE of actually becoming president...

Is America "ready" for a black president?

I refuse to answer such a pointless question.

Was America "ready" to end slavery?

Was America "ready" to end school segregation?

Was America "ready" to end "Jim Crow" laws?

All I can say is "If not now, when? If not Obama, then who?

America wasn't ready for any that, but yet it still - it happened! And I say the time is NOW!
