Goodbye to All That: Why Obama Matters

Is Iraq Vietnam? Who really won in 2000? Which side are you on in the culture wars? These questions have divided the Baby Boomers and distorted our politics. One candidate could transcend them.

oh, yes
Amazing article, isn't it? Gatto Matto recommended it to me a while ago. I think I have it posted on my Profile page, too. Funny. I particularly enjoy the fact that it illustrates the historical perpective for you and doesn't assume that you were either alive or remember everything that's past. It definitely put things in perspective for me, although I already heed the 'unity' message of Barack's campaign. Oh, and do listen to Obama's most recent speech; it's amazing to hear those words come from a politician's mouth!
