I feel the exact same way. I'm like, "OH. CRAP. THIS IS AWESOME." Although that begs the question of "is he really black" and is race more about class wars and privilege than racial hate...but still! What a great role model.

Like they say, if he was a mugger instead of a president, it wouldn't be up for debate. It's still huge. :)
