Black/White

The Obama candidacy of of course brings up the issue of Race. One would hope that a person would vote on the issues, rather than their prejudices.
But this has got me thinking about it again. Mr Obama is considered "Black". But why? He is as much "White" as he is "Black", isn't he? I mean, if his father was "Black" and his mother was "White", isn't he equally Black and White?
When will we realize that God created only one race, the Human Race.

The American Way

Weather or not you support Obama, I think his nomination says good things about this country. It proves that even in our present system, the opportunity exists for a "minority" person to rise to a high position. I think this says something good to the rest of the world about America.
