If they have elected a 'black president' then something is very wrong  
- I had been working on the assumption that the Democrats had  
nominated the best person they had for the job, irrespective of the  
amount of melanin in his skin.

A while back a friend pointed out somethingorother in his campaign and  
i said 'oh, yeah! I had forgotten he is black' because how on earth  
does it matter?
