Some said . . . . "It Couldn't Be Done." (as poem by Edgar Guest)

Somebody said that it couldn't be done *** But he - with a chuckle replied

That "maybe it couldn't," *** But he would be one who wouldn't say so till he tried.

So he buckled right in with a grin on his face.

If he worried he hid it. He started to do sing as he tackled the thing

That couldn't be done, and he did it.

Obama's major achievement: the tremendous amount of hope that he gives to the million of minority people, especially black children, around the globe. No wonder African-American, Caribbean people and Africans rejoice in his achievements. He has simply become one of the most inspirational figures in the world. Together with Nelson Mandela he has shown the heights that Africans can reach if only they would try. http://www.trinicenter.com/Cudjoe/2008/0506.htm
