Why didn't you attend the inaugural party, Dad ? Are'nt you, and many others, voted for Obama ? Why is it, there having a lot of parties while millions of Americans lost their jobs ? Why is America celebrating today ? Is Obama the true representation, of the poor people like us ? Why millions of people in Africa died of AIDS and malnutrition ? Isn't Obama from Kenya ? Why did he emphasized during his political campaign his white grandparents ? Is that politics, Dad ? Why is it a lot of Bill Clinton's people, running his cabinet and administration ? Isn't it, the rich democrats and the very rich republicans behind Wall Street ? Why is it Madoff of the Wall Street, a special person ? Why is it, that when a poor person commits a crime, he is jailed right away ? Is Madoff different from them ? Why is it more people are poorer today ? Why is it the very rich gets richer ? Why is it you are not making a million bonus each year ? Are you dumb, Dad ? Why is it my classmate poorer than us ? Why does mom has to work, and you have two jobs, Dad ? What is a social conscience, Dad ? What is hedonism, dad ? Why is it we invaded Iraq, dad ? Why did we lost the Vietnam war, dad ? Aren't you a veteran ? Why is it you are poorer than McCain ? Isn't he P.O.W like your bestfriend ? Why is it your friend , in the "mental hospital", while McCain in the Senate ? Is your friend a coward ? Is your friend dumb like you, Dad ? Aren't you a patriot, Dad ? Is grandpop a hero ? Did he fought the Japanese during World War II ? Why was grandpop stranded in the Philippines for years ? Why did he survived the death march in the Philippines ? Why did America refused to help the Jews persecuted in Poland and Germany ? Why did we reacted to World War II, only after the Pearl Harbor was bombed ? What is the difference between Pearl Harbor and the World Trade (911) ? Why is it we killed Saddam Hussien and his children ? Why is it Osama Bin Laden still at large ? Why can't we capture him ? Aren't we the best ? Why can't the CIA get him ? Aren't they supposed to be the best and the brightest ? Why are you dumb, Dad ? Are you scared ? Why do you worry too much ? Why do you drink too much ? Why do you work too much ? Why do you buy the lottery tickets, Dad ? Are'nt you happy, Dad ? What is your social conscience doing to you ? Why is it some sociopaths are richer and powerful ? Where is God, Dad ? Does God approves this ? What is faith Dad ? Dad, are you awake ??????
Part II
Thanks, you're awake. After President Obama's inauguration, can I be assured of my educational future ?
I am not that smart compared to President Obama, can I have the opportunity to become a President like him and be like him ? Am I "hybrid" dad ? Aren't you half-white and half-brown, Dad ? Aren't mom, half-European and half-African ? Is that making me a super hybrid, dad ? Was grandpop, half-native American and half-English ? Did grandpop identified himself with the "white" people ? What happened to grandpop's nation ? Aren't they civilized and organized as a nation before the Mayflower sat foot in the Plymouth shores ? Why is it Uncle "Screaming Eagle" lives in an Indian Reservation land ? What happened to their birthland ? Aren't they were here first ? Why is it cousin "baby eagle" killed herself ? Why is it they are a separate people from us ? Aren't we Americans ? Why is it they called President Obama, African American and others Asian-American, Irish-American, Italian-American and many other "halves" ? Aren't we're all Americans ? Will it makes us stronger as a People and Nation ? Why is it the different Indian Nations succumbed to the rule of the "white" people ? Is it the divide and rule tactics by the "European conquestadores ? What are you doing, dad ? Are you listening ?
