Obama In the WorkPlace ………

Barack Obama in the work Place
First I want to say a big congrats to Obama and all he has achieved so far. He has shown leadership qualities time and time again.
Today I really want to talk about how Barack relates to the work place. When people see Barack most see a strong African American male “he is half black half white”. Now I am not going to be ignorant and say it is equal in the work place, or most places in United States. I now believe without a shadow of doubt no matter what race you are, or gender you can be anything you set your mind too.
I know millions of people who said Barack is crazy just for attempting to become president. True Leaders don’t value the opinion of people who are not looking to move forward. Barack if he becomes president or not has shown race should not be factor if you determined to be what you want to be. If you look at how many minority are CEO’s of Billion Dollar companies now compared to 20 year ago it is staggering.
I personally think that when people pull the race card in game of employment or business they are looking for someone to blame. You will hear a thing like so and so is an Oreo or whatever excuse they can think of to make themselves feel better. Now let’s be real, sure I am going to offend some people here, but this is Jubrilagoro.com so I will say what I please. If you look like LIL Wayne, or Amy Winehouse, Osama Bin laden, Travis Barker there is good chance you won’t get hired, and won’t have anything to do with your race. It will be more of the stereotypical views people have, and sure they could be the best and most talented people but image would cause damage.
I see Barack as evolution and racism becoming less and less in the world. I also would like to talk about Hilary Clinton and what she means for minorities, and women which are minorities. Next time I will focus on Hilary and what she means to America. Just to have both of them running ahead of the pack, we will have history either way. Me personally 2-3 years ago would never of thought a woman or black male would have chance to be president so soon. This is America, and if you have dream you can achieve it.
