The recurring nightmare
No matter how much is it to be desired to get beyond our racist past, it seems we are prisoners of it. And in the case of this president, this brighter than bright achiever of the all that Americans aspire to, he is sadly burdened with the greatest racist taboo of them all: being the product of a white woman and a black man. There are Americans who simply cannot stomach that truth. And they will do what they can to destroy Barack Obama..
Let us hope we regain our balance. Our sense of fair play.There is still much work to do.
