(Mandela) Madiba: 85 and still world champ

Former South African president Nelson Mandela, who turns 85 today, has become one of the world's best-loved men. His wisdom and leadership have inspired millions. On the occasion of his birthday we bring you a selection of quotes from this great South African:

At the Rivonia treason trial in 1964: "I have fought against white domination, and I have fought against black domination. I have cherished the ideal of a democratic and free society in which all persons live together in harmony and with equal opportunities. It is an ideal which I hope to live for and to achieve. But if need be, it is an ideal for which I am prepared to die."

"I have walked that long road to freedom. I have tried not to falter; I have made missteps along the way. But I have discovered the secret that after climbing a great hill one only finds that there are many more hills to climb."

"It is not the kings and generals that make history but the masses of the people, the workers, the peasants, the doctors, the clergy."

I really don't like Graham saying 'it's a dream to impeach Bush because of a Repukelican Senate'. What if Mandela gave up hope 10 years into his White Man Cheney's Sentence? What if Luke Sky Walker gave up and didn't face Darth Vader?

Our 'masses' Mandela's 'hiistory' is to use the Internet and put The Bush Crime Family in jail. Be proud of yourself. Walk next to Nelson Mandela into history! Never give up believing we can defeat evil! Never doubt yourself on your mission. This is our time to look at one of the world's greatest men for guidance.

Look at the world's greatest man. Who's one of his best friends? The Clinton family. Who's the man Mandela hates more than any man on earth? George Bush.

Something we could ask our Whore Media about! Email one for Mandela. He went to the cross for you.
