This is to alert the list that we are having an "open mike" on the list for discussion of the Obama run for the Dem candidacy for president. This will be a somewhat polemical discussion as people will want to make arguments and present evidence for political positions. After posting what is in the cue at the moment we will be stressing research information to deepen the discussion and not just another place to vent our political and ideological views. We need to hold this list to the standards of Black Studies scholarship. With that said I hope we can shed light and not merely squabble.
