Being born black in America you are promised two things‚ persecution and a sense of rhythm.

Although some may see it as a disadvantage‚ I believe that Paine had neither an advantage or disadvantage to being born in the colonies. He spoke from the heart and addressed issues that all colonists could relate to. What made him the most successful was the way he wrote to people‚ not where he was born.
