so, i’m sitting here watching 60 minutes and it’s completely devoted to president-elect obama’s first media interview since his victory a couple weeks ago (and michelle obama). all i can think is, ‘we have a black president. a black president. this guy is black. and he’s the president. of the united states. you know, that united states that wouldn’t let black people drink out of the same water fountains as white people about 50 years ago. that united states that shipped over boats full of black people as their property. yeah, that country. now, a black guy is running the joint.’
