1. We elected the best guy, who happens to be black.

2. Yeah, but WE ELECTED A BLACK GUY PRESIDENT.

I'd say something like, "I never thought in my lifetime..." but I don't say things like that.

Don't you understand? WE ELECTED A BLACK GUY PRESIDENT.

6. Obama's black? Oh yeah, I guess I never noticed...

;)

10. I really didn't..

I knew he was the best one for the job and only get irritated when it's pointed out what color he is.

Like that guy interviewing him on 60 Minutes..asking why they didn't talk about how historic his nomination was at the DNC? Obama: "I think they noticed". He cracks me up.

7. I would have voted for him if he was purple with green stripes

But I think it IS awesome that we had an African American President. It's about time!

8. It took a brother to get us rid of the Bushies and back on track.

That's how I look at it.

11. Hey, I didn't elect a black guy

I elected him because he was the BEST man for being President of the United States, for his brain, his character, his personality, his spirituality and all.
