Earlier today I found myself wondering why everyone was calling this election a historic one.

...

And then I remembered that Obama's black.

And for the next year they're going to be talking about the first black US President.

And then the year after, or maybe the one after that, we'll have forgotten it, and it will be a non-issue for everyone else too.

Then we'll truly be living in the future.

Really? My HS was full of 1/2 Asians, but to be fair I'm a bit younger than you. I also think I had a total of 5 straight friends back then too...

My HS was 1/3 Jewish, 1/3 Asian, and yet I was the only halfling. *shrugs* I fulfill both stereotypes of nerdish kids!
