Reply #26: How amazing! But I'm 76 and I actually lived in the days of REAL racism.

Not this pseudo racism you bemoan for simply acknowledging the fact that he is black. The bad old days when people were killed for simply being black. I really don't see a whole lot of difference between the America we have now wondering if Obama is fit to be President because he's black and the America of the civil rights era that wondered if JFK was fit to be President because he was Irish Catholic. There is a time to be grateful for what you do have and what you don't have. That time is NOW. I'm grateful too see Obama not only running but doing well. I'm grateful to see those once megalithic race barriers eroded to ant hills easily ignored, steped over, or crushed.
