A brave new world

I was just thinking:

If Barack Obama wins the Presidential election in November, you will be born into a world with an African-American President.

How extraordinary.  

And a far cry from the world in which your mother and I emerged. After 210 years and 43 Caucasian Presidents, our country is on the brink of a historic change.

But for you, the thought of a black President may seem almost ordinary. 

How remarkable that may be.
