If you guys want Stephen Harper you can come get him. I did Edge's link just for the #####s, but I don't know who most of the people are other than "Maverick" (and seriously if I ever hear that word again it'll be too soon. The only Maverick I roll with is the Top Gun), horsefaced moron huntress, and O-Bomb, 'cause, you know, they're on TV all the time. I like how Jaker assumes everyone is from the US.
By like, I mean that it makes me ashamed to live there.
He also assumes everyone plays WoW, GH, and likes to read the opposite of anything that could be called literature.

I'm not. Not if he won the latin vote, anyway. I don't know if he did, but if he did there's a large Cuban population in Florida.
I've yet to take in (or register) the scope of it all. Though people are asking me if it's a big deal to me because I'm biracial too.
I don't know how to answer that really. I mean... Well when you're biracial you don't really get to have any racial identity since you're never anything, so I don't know if I identify as "biracial" really. Like if I was 100% black, and he was 100% black maybe it'd be different. Maybe not, I can't really say 'cause I'll never know.
Of course I care about it even though it's not my country, like... I try not to watch it all since I'm gonna get bombarded with it anyway whether I try or not. I care, but I don't care that he's biracial. That's just like a bonus feature. Corvettes drive the same, white or black.
What I'm mostly interested in right now, is the world view now. This is something I learned from Miss USA 2007 (yes, I never thought I'd say I learned anything from a professional beauty pageantist) on some show, to paraphrase; "Miss USA can't be Miss Universe. Miss USA doesn't have a 'world look.'"
That concept, applied to the leader of a nation, is something very interesting to me, since basically 85+ percent of my entire life has been wrapped up in trying to figure out racial issues.
