It is a beautiful thing and what a great question!.
One of the things that makes the United States unique is our diversity!. Our diversity of color, culture and ways of life!.\
Are we perfect!? No!.
But what a tribute to an imperfect nation, to have diversity among our candidates!.
I pray that the election be fair and just, not like the shame of 2000, in which the election was stolen by the son of a CIA director who happened, (happens), to be a ultra-rich Texas oilman!. I love Texas, and I am from Tennessee, but I am ashamed of George W!. Bush and I miss hearing the Dixie Chicks on the radio!.
Hey, maybe when Barack Obama wins, the Chicks will Play!Www@QuestionHome@Com

that would be that this is the first time that an african american or a woman (or both for that matter) have actually ran for president and came this close to becoming president!.!.!.we very well (though to the dismay of some including myself) have Obama or Hillary for presidentWww@QuestionHome@Com

What kind of question is that!. The significance is nothing, as both a woman and an African American have run before!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I think it reflects that people ae sensing the old ways don't work anymore and they are all looking for some change to spin things around!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
