"Obama had the foresight to run for president at a time when being an  
African-American was not as important to Americans as, say, the  
ability to clothe and feed their children," Pung continued. "An  
election like this only comes once, maybe twice, in a lifetime."

As we enter a new era of equality for all people, the election of  
Barack Obama will decidedly be a milestone in U.S. history, undeniable  
proof that Americans, when pushed to the very brink, are willing to  
look past outward appearances and judge a person by the quality of his  
character and strength of his record. So as long as that person is not  
a woman.
