We’ve generally avoided the political on the blog and I consider this non-political anyway.
President Obama. For everyone with a “funny” last name like Langlois,  Decicco, Garcia, Kulik Songdahl, Hu, Kusakabe, NGuyen, Saif, or Abolrous. For everyone who has looked at the paintings of the presidents past, Washington, Jefferson, Reagan, Carter, and Bush to name a few. Forty-three in total.
For anyone who is part of a visible and even less visible minority in the US, who has never had a president that wasn’t a white protestant, who felt underrepresented in the American political experience, this is a sea change.
Note: Kennedy was president from January 20, 1961 to November 22, 1963. That’s it. That’s the only exception.
