Today is Optimism Day. It’s a day to believe that right will triumph; people will be first in line rather than profit; priorities will be sorted to, "first make life better for all of us"; and, hate will be ploughed asunder.
Say What! “You must be a Maroon,” you say?
Yeah!
Well, the people of London did it!
O.K., so they at least took the first step. They elected a guy named Khan -a Muslim, son of a Pakistani immigrant bus driver - over a dirt bag, hate mongering aristocrat.*
You know, I think those Londoners are more American than… Americans!
Now, I gotta dream… Americans will be more like Londoners!
