Memories and Quote of the Day

Replying to a question on MSNBC this morning on whether he would consider Oprah Winfrey as a running mate, Sen. Barack Obama said:

"I think Oprah is far more powerful than a vice president. I think that would be a demotion for her."

In another interesting bit of information, when asked, along with 14 other presidential candidates what item reminded him most of where he came from, Obama mentioned a photograph of Oahu in his Senate office.

The pictures shows an area on the South Shore of Oahu with waves crashing off a cliff near where the ashes of his mother were scattered.
