What's all this hoopla about a "black" president?

Amen.

If we had really made racial progress, then when a "black" president was
elected, nobody would notice.

Hoping that people won't notice such an obvious physical characteristic is
still a bit much, I think. I'll be quite happy when society reaches the point
where nobody *cares*. Nobody *noticing* is a few generations away yet.
