The Mystery of the "Hands Touching Obama" Photo
Advertisements [?]
I believe that a photograph can be a window to the soul.

Who do the "Hands" belong to? Who took the photograph? What was Obama thinking at the time?

Please post any information here or links so that we'll know more.:hug:

In another thread I wrote my impressions about the "Hands Touching Obama" photograph ----

It is thrilling to be African American and see how he is adored but there is another part.

All the hands in the photo are many sizes, tones and genders.

The Hands of Humanity seem to be telling us....

"If it can happen to Obama,then my dreams, whatever they may be, can come true too."

It means that a poor little White girl can be whatever she dreams. She doesn't have to have fancy clothes like Paris Hilton.

It means that a Hispanic Soldier that came back from the war with only one leg can walk with an artificial leg. Yes.He.Can.

It means that even though you are a box boy in the local market,you can RISE.

It means that Karen Bass,who once was an African American Physician's Assistant and later a Community Organizer, can be sworn in as the SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE(the 1st African American woman to hold that position in California) and RISE to even greater laurels.

Obama is every man, every woman,every child all over the world.

His achievement is a beacon that all of us can follow.

My grandmother always reminded me, " Don't ever let anybody tell you how to dream and what to dream ~ YOU are your own DREAM MAKER."

Obama isn't telling us what to Dream, he is showing us how to make our DREAMS come true.
