"Trayvon Martin could have been me 35 years ago," President Obama said
Friday in the White House press room.The president's decision to speak out
about the Trayvon Martin-George Zimmerman case is an explosive, risky step
in an already polarized racial landscape.The first black president has tried
to speak about race before and not had a good response. That's
possibly why he said that he's not calling for a "national dialogue"
but asking people to do some soul searching at home, at church
and among friends.The president's decision to come out and speak, despite
the warnings from his top advisers, reveals how deeply the Martin-Zimmerman
case has torn at the nation's long, troubled history of race relations.
The fact is president must have concluded that he had no choice
but to speak out or be recorded in the history books as
a political no-show on the critical race issues of his day. President
Obama is already under fire for not doing enough on race, for
not speaking out about black on black crime in the country, about
high black unemployment, about the tragedy of urban education for black
kids. Something deep in him must have forced him to speak out
this time.While it won't please his critics that the president spoke at
all, it's clear that Mr. Obama is trying to offer a leader's
healing prescription for a nation filled with hurt over the Martin-Zimmerman
case.I know I have been hurt in the days since the verdict.I
have been full of sa

is there. I'm going to look forward to keeping it sharp next
week and going to the World Golf Championship and another major in
the next couple of weeks. I like where I'm at."Mickelson started the
final round five strokes adrift of overnight leader Westwood, but held steady
going out and then stormed down the back nine in a superb
32 at a time when all of his rivals were stumbling in
the tough conditions.It was the third straight Open won by a golfer
in their 40s with Ernie Els and Darren Clarke both 42 when
they won at Royal Lytham and Royal St George's, respectivelyMickelson also
became the first player in history to win the Scottish Open and
then go on to win the British Open the following week.Tiger Woods
started the day tied for second, just two off the lead, but
he failed to find any spark and his record of never having
won a major when trailing after 54 holes held firm as he
came in at two over 286 after a 74.Throughout the day it
was a bruising battle of wiles and wills among the the world's
best golfers with no quarter given and the mighty Muirfield links showing
no mercy to the faint-hearted.The lead changed hands at regular intervals,
but in the end it was the experience and the expertise of
the popular Mickelson that carried the day to secure the Claret Jug
that goes to the winner of the British Open.England's Ryder Cup hero
Ian Poulter set the early clubhouse target of one over
