"A Black Man Can Be President"(hoopiejohn original) alt title: "Stranger Things Have Happened"

*************************************************

Heartfully and lovingly dedicated to "Flo", the progressive.com girl on TV (and ..sigh..my secret crush!)

To Flo:

Let me not to the marriage of true minds
Admit impediments. Love is not love
Which alters when it alteration finds,
Or bends with the remover to remove:
Oh no! It is an ever-fixed mark
That stares on tempests and is never shaken;
It is the star to every wandering bark,
Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken.
Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks
Within his bending sickle's compass come:
Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,
But bears it out even to the edge of doom.

If this be error and upon me proved,
I never writ, nor no man ever loved(1).

With love and sincerity,
hoopiejohn

I thought it was time for another harmonica piece. I promised KeniLeeBurgess http://www.youtube.com/user/KeniLeeBurgess I wouldn't make them too often, but its been nine months since the last one, so

Played finger style on my 6-string Republic brass-bodied "Resolian" resophonic parlor guitar, and I'll tell you why: No way I'm having the slobber and spittle that drools and sprays out of a blues harp, all over either one of my two relatively new National guitars. After all, this little guitar cost me only about one-fourth of what either one of them did. And anyone with a wooden body guitar should likewise be careful; human saliva contains many substances that can be injurious to a wood finish.

Self-accompanied on a "C" scale Hohner "Old Standby" harmonica, but almost any brand or model will do.

[Note to IplayBanjoNow: http://www.youtube.com/user/IPlaybanjonow Sorry, but my heart has already been given to Flo; however, I can add you in near the top of my auxiliary list.]

Note: I wear the ski mask because I'm shy.

[1 Actually Sonnet CXVI by William Shakespeare, but I dont reckon poor little dumb Flo will know the difference!].
