Election night

It's an exciting night in the US! I'm thrilled that Obama is doing so well! Yea!!! We're going to have an intelligent person leading our nation again! A democrat in the presidency again! A brown man in the white house! It's about time! Sometimes I think Americans are pretty intelligent, but then on election years the general public terrifies me. There are so many paranoid rumors flying around because too many people are stupid enough to believe them. We have yet to have a person of color or a woman in the white house while countries with terrible human rights records for women have had women presidents. Most of the world is not white, and yet we have managed to maintain white control. In our last election we decided to elect a total *%% because he smiles so nicely and calls himself a Christian, even though nothing he does represents Jesus' view point. What is wrong with us that we cling to ignorance and paranoia, rather than seeking knowledge and truth? At least tonight it looks like we can celebrate that intelligence is winning!


As I write this, I'm also tired of the commentaries on every burp in the process. It'll be nice to hear the summary.
