He is the President Elect Obama. NOT President Elect BLACK Obama!


Karl is right. While (rightfully) going out of their way to avoid the race factor (which Obama brought up more than anyone)...the media is now emphasizing almost nothing but.

Obama's race is the ONLY thing that makes this election historic, and to a degree it certainly should be celebrated.

That point aside, after rejecting left-wing lib presidential candidates for 30+ years, we have just placed one in the White House, and while congratulating him on this we can only hope he does less damage to the country than the more intelligent of us expect.
