Quite often (especially in the last 8 years), I find myself deeply embarassed by the actions and attitudes of the nation of my birth

It really is more than that. It's the fact that so many people saw see how extraordinary he is and disregarded Obama's color.

I swore up and down tow years ago that we might see a white female President in my life time but that we would not see a black man get elected.

I've never been so happy to be wrong in my entire life.

Amen to that.

On another note, it looks like I'll be moving to London at the end of the year. I'd love to hear any advice you might be able to offer about places to live/things to do/etc.

EXCELLENT!

we'll have to meet up for a pint or three.

Yeah, email me at katmaidog at yahoo dot co dot uk and I'll give you as much info as I can think of.

How long are you going to live here?

[rincemaj]

I will do that, thanks.

As for how long, it is open-ended, but probably a couple of years at least.
