i m erin burnett and outfront tonight, hot rod show and tell. yes, you heard me right. hot rod. iran today defiantly flaunting its first iranian made nuclear rods. if iran is going to this is a crucial step towards building a weapon. now, a lot of this of course is propaganda and wearing the white labcoat for the cameras, president ahminedjad was on hand at a tehran nuclear facility as fuel rods were lowered into a nuclear reactor. rods contain the pellets of nuclear fuel. that s essential for nuclear reaction. while that was going on, iran was sharing other news. cake, which is another step to enriching uranium to the 90% holy grail weapons grade level. now, ahminedjad, as we re all well aware, insists that iran s nuclear program is for medical and peaceful purposes. i.e. nuclear power. but no one buys it not even the watchdog i.a.e.a. and definitely not washington or tel aviv. have we reached a tipping point with iran? where sanctions will not be enough? a new research

about your business plan or what you intend to do for revenue. my buddies here advised me to get a white guy to be my front man. i hired a polished white guy and let him do the talking. it is very sad. in 2011 we have a black president and he is not putting any money in my pocket right now directly. we have to play the game until we are successful. if ten years down the road there are no more black entrepreneurs than there are today what is at risk? a permanent under class. in this unassuming three bedroom home in mountain view, california angela benten and wayne sutten hope to make history. see what this thing looks like. one of them is supposed to be a sofa bed. the friends connected online, two black entrepreneurs trying to succeed in an overwhelmingly white industry. for whatever reason african americans seem to be consumers of technology and not really creators of technology. name me one black startup ceo. where is there an example of a black zukerbur
