A stark contrast on Independence Day Posted by Chris on July 4th, 2008 filed in Barack Obama, General, Politics 3 Comments » As the US of A is on the verge of electing it’s first black man for president, I would like to offer the stark contrast between our possible first black president and one of our first black immigrants: James Armistead. This black immigrant was a slave in bondage. He had no money, no property, nothing. What he did have was the unstoppable spirit that was typical in Americans and makes this country what it is. George Washington and the rag tag American rebels were finally starting to turn the tide.
