Obama's election also brought racism out against "different" peoples like I haven't experienced since the 50's and 60's. So yes we did show SOME intelligence in electing him and I'm beginning to think that election was a surprise to all the "good, real americans" and that's changed since the racists got energized by the 'birther' mess and other racially tinged allegations. I hope your observations/optimism is spot on.
