ON SECOND THOUGHT…Roberto Clemente's Wisdom…


I haven't written in a while. Just enjoying life with family and friends. :-) But something struck me the other day so here it is. I was thinking that Obama's campaign slogan "Hope and Change" should have be reversed. Should have been "Change and (then) Hope" as in 'hope the change works', which most often it has not. In retrospect is it possible that had the GOP worked that angle would the slogan have met the same level of success for Obama? 

Many years ago a Hall of Fame baseball player, Roberto Clemente, was overheard shouting out to a rookie, who was performing the Sign of the Cross on himself prior to getting into the batters box. Clemente's words were "hey rookie, we don't pray for hits on the Majors!" The past six years have proven to me that Obama's Hoping is much the same as the rookie's Praying, in the absence of talent both are futile in the big leagues.

Albiwan..
