37. I was in a convenience store in my neighborhood
and a young black man (who fit the stereotypical thug image) came in the store wearing an Obama big tee with a diamond studded pistol ear ring in his ear.

So MDMC when you write, " When wearing an Obama hat or something even the tough test gang members and thugs would show props to Obama and would let me campaign on their turf." I get it, because I see it.

There is a segment of society that is coming up in the Obama Age. They maybe living a destructive lifestyle for now, but if you go in the hood, people (young/old)inspired and yes THRILLED by Obama.

Remember the place were Obama was when he was 17,18 yrs old and look at were he is now. In the hood they know this and having a 1st lady from the southside of Chicago is the icing on the cake. That's inspiration, for real.
