Its hard to argue with the statistics you cite while at the same time I don't want to be barroom cocksure about Obama. This message board casts conclusive opinions more than it engages in a discourse that attempts to move towards reconciliation. The having a beer meeting with the 3 of them is something I hope the world watches and is in tune to. It has alot of symbolic potential to be the teaching moment Obama is floating for the kind of world you'd want to kids to inherit. I know its sappy but its right.
