^ and especially, ^^ -Thank You.--you also, Louie- lots of knowledge and I'm fortunate that you shared it with me.
Hejira (!), I am going to print out what you wrote, as there's so much information in it that I am unaware of that it will help me learn, once I google some of the terms and people you wrote of.
The one thing I could understand straight off was that Obama being the anti-Bush, which you said much better, had to have been a major factor in how his election happened.
Until I understand more about your most thoughtful and eloquently informed reply, I'm a man with nothing more to write on this topic. I need to have something, anything, of value to offer on this subject and I believe you've provided me with a generous head start to achieve that.
Thank you for reading at such length something so beneath your level of knowledge, and for giving me answers to improve my own knowledge, if I put effort into absorbing what you took time to give to me.
I do appreciate it greatly.
