I know Barack Obama is black. I know it because every article I read about him makes a very big point of it. But, when I see him on TV, I don't see a black man. I do see a handsome, tall, slender, thoughtful, loving, engaging, intelligent, and charming family man who, I believe, will be the next President of the United States. But, I don't see a black man. I think it's about time we only mention his color if it's pertinent to the topic under discussion. We don't call GWB the worst white President in history. His color is superfluous.As a matter of fact, so is he. But, getting back to President Obama, he will lead America back to the proud Country we used to be and will be again.
