Note: You will need to be mature enough to separate the significance of a black man being elected president from his particular policy views.

In ancient Africa, master, slave and the untouchables both the master and slave rejected sat together peacefully at three distinct dinner tables. In America, the ideal is to sit at one dinner table. This action will not cause peace.

I wonder if there are contemporary statistics for how much per military kill vs how much spent in welfare per capita helped.
