Well, I should have added "Elect a black president" to my list of yesterday. Congratulations USA. And a massive vote too. Which just goes to show that when people, and particularly voters, begin to believe in change, anything can happen. Where were all these voters last time round? Not registered, presumably. They couldn't see that it made any difference whether they voted or not. And suddenly we find a whole new population of Democratic-leaning adults finally expressing their wishes when they are represented by someone with whom they can identify.
