Five years ago, George W. Bush, whom I think we can all agree is not the best public speaker to hold the office of president, made a speech linking Iraq to Al Qaeda, and accusing Saddam Hussein of having ongoing chemical, biological and nuclear weapons programs as well as stock piles of weapons of mass destruction.

And white people bought it hook line and sinker.

Five years, a half a trillion dollars and a few hundred thousand civilian casualties later, Barack Obama, a bi-racial man raised by his white mother and possibly the most eloquent speaker on the national stage since Dr. Martin Luther King, made a landmark speech basically saying that he is not a racists, but someone who wants to help heal the racial divide.
