President Hillary … and Maya Angelou? :)
January 19, 2008
By Dove, www.TarotwithLove.com At the end of December, my Tarot cards strongly indicated that Hillary Clinton would be our next president.
As I stated in that post, I’m not at all political, and I often (very often) make choices that are greatly influenced by my, um, “intuition,” or “gut feeling,” if you like :) At the point that I drew the cards above, I was leaning more toward Obama based solely on what others had told me. Since then, I’ve listened to Hillary a few times. I like her :) I think she’s strong, and smart, and I think she’s genuine. A good person, and clearly very experienced… I now have no doubt that she would be a very good president, and I later said something to that effect in the comments of the above post. And that aligns with what the Tarot was saying, that she would do good things for our country as president. Lots of very positive cards came up in response to that question. I feel very good about her now, and she’s the one, as far as I’m concerned.
I was just now watching her on the Tyra Banks show (not a show I generally enjoy, but I watched to see Hillary). It was a nice interview. Again, I feel Hillary’s passion, her strength… I loved it when Tyra asked Hillary how she felt about Oprah Winfrey so strongly supporting Obama. Hillary responded with something like, “Well, ya’ know, I have a lot of fine people who are supporting me as well.” Tyra pushed the issue, being very kind and charming all the while.
This time, Hillary said, “Well, Maya Angelou is supporting me.” LOL! Oh-ma-gawd, I love that Maya is supporting Hillary. Maya is essentially Oprah’s “Mama” LOL! ;) As much as I admire Oprah, we all know she often goes to Maya for her wonderful wisdom. I’m with Maya, I’m with Hillary for our next president. And I very much believe she will be.
Oh, also I thought it was classy of Hillary to not immediately shoot back that Maya was supporting her. No, but when Tyra pushed the issue… And I love knowing that someone that Oprah greatly admires and loves, a mother-daughter type of relationship with Maya Angelou, and yet Maya is supporting Hillary Clinton for president … over an African-American.
That speaks volumes in my opinion. Maya is a wise woman, I love her, I greatly admire her. I don’t believe for a minute that she would support Hillary over the opportunity to have an African-American in the White House unless she felt Hillary was exceedingly worthy. In my view, she sees in Hillary, what I see. A strong woman, experienced and dedicated to the people, to doing the right thing, and someone who is fully capable of cleaning up the mess that this last one has made.
Yay, Hillary! … and Maya! :)
Peace,
Dove

Hi dove, it’s interesting. I think there is a lot of pressure on African American celebrities to endorse Mr. Obama, but the president of Black Entertainment Television also came out in support of Ms. Clinton. He said he admires Obama greatly, but believes Clinton has the leadership qualities and the political clout to support causes important to people of color. I’m not much into politics, either, but this will be an interesting year–and not just politically!
I still remember Maya Angelou reading her commissioned poem at President Bill Clinton’s inauguration–gives me chills to this day!

Hey, I found this youtube clip of Maya speaking of Hillary. I was scanning through the comments on it. Geez, some people… One person noted that this indicated that it was paid for by Hillary Clinton. So what? Are they actually suggesting that Maya could be bought?? LOL!
Maya is Maya, like Oprah, because she can’t be bought :) Maya is one of the finest women ev-uh, strong, HONEST, wise, authentic… And in this clip she references Hillary’s honesty, how proud she is of Hillary, Maya says Hillary is a “phenomenal woman,” that she is so proud of…
What an absurdity to think that Maya would say these things inauthentically, knowing her potent influence, without her wonderful heart being in them.
If Maya, a phenomenal, honest, intelligent, highly admired, dignified, and wise woman herself, says that Hillary is a phenomenal, strong, HONEST, woman that she is very proud of, then, for me, that’s a mega ping-ping-ping confirmation of my “gut feeling” about Hillary.

Hi Muse, yeah, Maya’s an amazing woman, and I can’t remember if you said you’d read her, “I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings,” but you should. Gawd, she’s just the most phenomenal writer.
Yeah, an interesting year indeed… it already freaks me out that they were projecting that Obama would win NH, and yet Hillary won. Oh-yeah, she’s gonna be the next president :)
