On this historic date
Here we are on the 200th birthday of Confederate president and Democrat Jefferson Davis, with the breaking news that an African-American Senator, Barack Obama has won the nomination of that same Democratic party for the presidency of the United States.
We've come a long way.
This is just one of the reasons I love being a teacher and living in this great country.

Don't go there John!
