Morrison says nothing of Obama now that he has created an Administrations of dual-citizen Israelis and Jewish bankers who have fleeced and destroyed the country. Obama has done nothing for this country. His only answer to everything is wait until the pandemic hits this fall. He waiting for the undertakers to solve everything. The vaults are already dug. Do some research, and you will find the burial grounds in three states and detention camps. This is Obama's final solution. Toni and Oprah knew!

Normally, I don't post responses to crazy postings such as this, but I'm really curious: what planet are you from and where did the mothership drop you off? Whatever kooky radical right wing lunatic you listen, may I respectfully suggest you broaden your horizon so that you get a more balanced view of Planet Earth.

Toni...wisdom is a "merit" rather than a "gift" -- it comes about through many many lifetimes of hard soul work (for most).

it is only a "gift" when it is remembered in a particular lifetime and then used by the soul in a service-to-other rather than a service-to-self orientation.

With all due respect, Toni Morrison is a great thinker who knows how to translate her vision into words. When it comes to wisdom, her assessment of Barack Obama is brilliant. Barack Obama has been nothing if not selfless in his pursuit of the American Dream as he shares what he has learned to help make our world a better place to live, work and play.

The romantic music paired with this is perfect for the rather romanticized idea that people have of this man. Most Obama supporters know nothing about him. My deep respect for Toni Morrison notwithstanding, she is, like Oprah .. in the elite. Her ability to get health care or not does not depend on Obama. She can leave the country at any moment, Oprah has billions, she'll be fine in any event. Obama is just a man, not a God, and you cannot have a man fill the God Shaped Hole in your soul.

Our founding fathers determined that the government of the United States of America would be led by a President. My respect for Senator Barack Obama, Toni Morrison and Oprah Winfrey has no bounds. Successful beyond the ordinary dreams we have as children, they have each chosen to remain engaged in the world around them. I believe in the God who created bluebirds and rainbows.

@theSTORIEgoesON this is youtube. it does not represent this country so calm yourself.

[theSTORIEgoesON]

im kinda curious as to why there are only allowed to be positive remarks and the negative ones are removed? keep your biases but just look at where this country has fallen to.

[sprinklerguy004]

All you guys are joking? Right?

[ldbordes]

My respect for Toni Morrison. I love her books (especially 'Beloved'). I appreciate her as a writer. But I'm a republican and support John McCain for President.
