I also recalled today that my youngest now 16 when asked his ethnic background around grade 2 said he was part Irish and English and African American, it was funny because he is obviously white but because his Aunt is African American and his cousins are biracial that is how he identified himself, children are color blind and thank goodness for that, the sooner the adults realize this the better for all mankind. Today I am happy to wish all the best to the new President of the USA, his job is daunting and I cannot think of a better man to fill these shoes.
