I am sick of people saying that Obama is poised to make history. Obama already HAS made history. It is not a triumph for the so-called "black community" if he wins and it is not a failure from racist bigotry if he loses.
We have a female vice presidential candidate on a competitive ticket. Hillary was in a dead heat with Obama and Obama has been taken seriously as a candidate. Obama is not some fringe racial politics wacko like Jesse Jackson. Obama may actually win the election. He has ALREADY made history. Winning the election is just icing on the cake. Now people who are not white and people who are not men can look and see that their race and gender are not what keeps them from being President of the United States.
I wonder what the results will be.
