Pretending it's not, and saying it doesn't matter is incredibly naivé.
When a country can go from segregation to this in less than a few dozen years, it shows that the world can change.
By appealing to younger voters, and people of all ethnicities, and by being aware of modern issues and needs, he's won the election. If the USA can sit a black man in the oval office, I'm actually ready to believe that the world is able to move in the right direction.
It doesn't matter the slightest bit if you personally aren't racist, because the general schmuck can be racist enough for the two of you, and I think that it's just about the right time for this to happen.

I'm sure there's a lot of people who don't agree, and it wasn't much of a surprise to see the deep south swing the other way (oo-er), but I think the whole world knew this was on the air. And regardless of race, I think this change in power, is going to bring about a wind of change that will make everybodies life, just a little bit better. I don't expect the world to turn into utopia, but it's a very good, hopeful turning point.

in my alevels, I got A's in all of my exams... however i only went to school 36.6% of the time, and did no coursework, ergo got all D's, E's and U's in the coursework...
If only I could do it all again.

And it had to be the most pointless and undeservedly long coursework known to man aswell, 4 pieces all which were 30 plus pages of utter bollocks and almost no actual computer work. Predictably I got a D for the coursework, but it didn't matter because it levelled out to an A after I took the exam, making the coursework practically redundant.

whoever gets the most votes in the state, gets all of the electoral colleges there, which is basically a points system. Each state has an amount of points.
So you need 270 points to win.
Does that make sense?

Speeding (I'm talking at most 5-10mph, maybe upto 15-20) can be done safely in quite a few circumstances, which is what the speed cameras catch, however they were originally put up to "reduce accidents" something that the gov's own studies prove they've not done for something silly like 95% of cameras...the thing is, most accidents caused "by speeding" are not caused by excess unlawful speed, they're caused by excess speed in the wrong situation (eg, going too fast around a bend and going wide, it may not be breaking the law, eg, 50 in a 60 may be too fast on say, an icy corner), which is poor driving and the complete fault of the driver.
Speed cameras don't catch bad driving, so they don't actually reduce accidents like they've been claimed, the only way to catch bad drivers is to actively police the roads with Traffic Officers.
In some circumstances they actually cause more accidents, as people can be going a bit quick, see a camera, and not wanting to get caught, hoof the brakes, they could lose control or a car behind them could go into the back.
Not to mention the numerous places where they're there for revenue generation (eg, bottom of hills on a straight road, or on a piece of straight dual carriage way).
In concept they're a good idea, in practice they are pretty much worthless, something which is finally being understood (See Swindon Council, actively removing cameras now). If they'd have been used sparingly at blackspots, they'd be effective, but as they have been used, it's mostly a revenue scheme with the knockon effect of demonising users of the road.
