I heard about this on the radio, and then looked it up. I find it both horrible and hilarious at the same time.

I turned the TV off when it came on. I made it through a few minutes, but that was about it.

I remember seeing this in history class and asking my teacher who it was. He was like, "Some idiot." and walked away.

Her poem was awful.
They got Yoyo Ma and Perlman to play in the music... Yet they couldn't get a decent poem?

Indeed it is. "Black?" How about, "Multi-Racial."
Well, Obama picked it, from what I hear. He seems to like her poetry. Problem(s) is(are), that poem was too much of a desperate homage to Obama's ideals, and she could not handle pressure.
