A beautiful and thoughtful song by Andrés Useche, performed in Spanish with English subtitles. I find it very difficult to side with the skeptics against the deluge of inspirational art and music this election has generated. If loving these songs is wrong, I don't want to be right. Hat-tip to...

The problem: Something is not as it seems in Happy Politics Land because our subject has something to hide... The thesis, titled "Princeton-Educated Blacks and the Black Community" and...

Categorized under Gobierno , M , Race for '08 | Tags: Bill Richardson, Clinton, Democrats, Election, Race
