This movie clip is really about the up and coming presidency of the United States. Read between the lines, which is not hard to do. As you know there are two contenders for the presidency. Who will win? Clinton or Obama? This is on every Americans mind at the moment. Is it time for a change and does America want a Mulatto president?

Well this little tidbit has some background information, it gives us an inside look at our future president hopeful, Barack Obama, back in 1972.
Even in college he ran for freshman class president, he is a fighting, Mulatto college boy, (a mixed generation of white and black parents) and is very young and ambitious.

The year; 1972, Barack Obama is a typical Negro American boy with high hopes, back then he had a dream, to one day be president of the United States of America.

1972 was a time when blacks where still fighting for equal rights against whites they just came out of the worst of it back in the 40’s, 50’s and 60’s. Barack was a typical teenager hanging out with friends playing domino’s, as we see him here, in this clip, discussing the vernacular of the streets and figuring out ideas of how to change the world and make a better America.

The Negro population is high here, in Occidental College, Obama’s articulation is, being able to reach across the cultural boundaries, so he is sitting around with friends discussing how he will one day change the world.

Today at the tender age of 47, born on August 4th 1961, he is still pursuing those ideas, and won’t be giving up anytime soon, until he has all America’s votes for the first black democratic president in office.
