I am very happy! Remember that Obama has Asian members in his family -- I was remarking to my sisters the next White House family portrait will be very multiracial. Race aside, this wasn't just a victory -- it was a landslide! I am amazed that so many people of all races, ethnicities and backgrounds rallied and made this happen -- to elect the first African American President of the US
"The two parties have combined against us to nullify our power by a ‘gentleman's agreement' of non-recognition, no matter how we vote ... May God write us down as asses if ever again we are found putting our trust in either the Republican or the Democratic Parties." -- W.E.B. DuBois (1922)

Feels like a dream.
It will hit me tomorrow.
You remember how I was in denial. Refusing to drink the koolaid. LOL
400 years of being maligned... it just didn't seem within the realm of possibility to a Black man like me.

Extraordinary Speech from John McCain. Wow!
it is surreal, AI.
Surreal.
When Keith Olbermann came on and did his thing about 'his math', I knew it.
I'm stunned.
Speechless. Simply speechless.
Missouri probably headed for a recount.
Race tied all the way down to the wire.
