A LOVE SUPREME

So now it's September. In a few days the media will release those articles reporters have been researching over the summer. Look for those pieces crafted by two or three journalists. These are the articles that will influence the first debate. It will place one of the candidates in denial mode. The media loves drama - so the polls will tell Americans the election is "suddenly" too close to call. They will promote the first debate like its Ali against Frazier. The media will cry for a knockdown and not a knockout. Remember there will be two more debates. Each camp is ready to spin to the media that their candidate won. They could let us know this over the Labor Day weekend if there wasn't a hurricane coming. Don't be fooled by polls. Clinton will win the election because of the Electoral College. Let Trump have his HUGE rallies - it doesn't count for much unless you can turn that into the magical 270.  So what will be the new battleground State?  Aren't you tired of Ohio, Florida, Colorado and Pennsylvania having all the fun?  How come the key state for winning the presidency is never Utah, Rhode Island or Hawaii?  Can you imagine if it came down to South Dakota? Oh, and what group will be the key group with the key votes?  Will it once again be white men K-12? Who continues to write this 1950s script? If you hear anything about black folks picking the next president of the US - then you know it's rigged. Yes, Trump - we had something to lose. We no longer pick cotton - we pick presidents. Three days before the first presidential debate Coltrane is born again - he quickly writes "Meditations" and promises " A Love Supreme."
