Wouldn't that be great!? Imagine that, a member of Delta Sigma Theta, the president of the United States.

I just watched the Congressional Black Conference Institute's Democratic Primary Debate and I have to say that Ambassador Mosely-Braun was one of the most articulate people on stage. When I first heard her addressed as "Ambassador," a bell rang in my head. Remembering what I learned about Delta and African-American female ambassadors, I said, "Hold that thought!" and ran into my room to do a Google search. Sure enough, Ms. Mosely-Braun is a sister of
DSQ.
She did your organization proud tonight. I can think of many worse fates for this country than to have her taking the Oath of Office in January, 2005.
