re: #120 ciaospirit

I didn’t say it wasn’t historic. I don’t think it’s “the” historic event, as it’s being made out to be.

I understood your emphasis on “the”. That’s why I said Michael Steele—

It is “the” historic event for African-Americans.

What would be historic for me? I’m in Outrider’s camp - it would be historic if competence rather than style mattered most. Or at all.

When we get over classifying Presidents as the first this or that (gender, race, and someday sexual pref.) and just look at substance… well that would be historic.
