Can we?

After the longest, tightest and most interesting campaigns in recent history, this time tomorrow we will definately know.

We will know whether the world is ready for a black American president.
We will know whether people are willing to take a chance.
We will know whether inspirational rhetoric matters.
We will know whether it is an unforgivable sin to be educated, eloquent and polite.
We will also know whether pitbulls with an appetite for hunting are appreciated.
We will know whether patriotism can be measured.
We will know whether Nam veterans stand a chance (and therefore Oliver stone should make some more movies for them).

But most of all we will know, whether people can accept and respect the other man's right to be different.
