I have watched bits and pieces of the convention. I agree with a lot that has been said here already. There is a very strong minority presence, but my vote can not and will not be given away just because they parade several black faces across the tv screen.
I also watched Al Sharpton's appearance on Geraldo's show. I agree with him completely when he stated that they can put on this great showcase of minorities, but what about after the convention and beyond? I think it is a good start if they are sincere, but I will not be mislead by a temporary show of affection.
I'm just waiting for Al Gore to announce his running mate, and hopefully some kind of momentum will pick up. Right now, I'm not impressed either.
