Back in February I wrote this post about a brief conversation I had concerning yesterdays presidential election. When I was asked who I thought would be our next president I replied that if I were a betting man I’d put my money on Barak Obama.
“Never gonna happen,” was the gentlemen’s reply.
I can't help but wonder what he is thinking this morning.
Old people like you and many others are really into the race thing. I guess it's neat there has finally been an african american president, but it is no more or less neat than the prospect of the first african american jewish lesbian president. For people who have not lived the flagrant racism of earlier decades, race is just not that important.
