Huh?

I caught the Canadian news just after the Presidential Inauguration the other day. It seems there is much euphoria on both sides of the border. Time will tell how the Obama administration will treat Canada. There are some indications that it could be nasty, trade-wise. But leave it to the young college students who were being interviewed, to get caught up in idealism.
Three comments I remember: A young woman said, "It is so wonderful! Everyone will get to live in a more socialistic society now. It will be better for everyone."
Another one was by a young man who said, " It is wonderful that America has its first African American President. Maybe some day Canada can have its first African American Prime Minister"
The third was by an articulate and attractive young woman who said, " Now there is a black president, and next there will be a woman President"

Friends, these are the future leaders, or maybe, hopefully, just voters, of our country. If the wishes all come true, Canada will have a black female Prime Minister who is a socialist. Before you shake your head or laugh (or cry), we are already there. Consider this. Michealle Jean is our true head of state as we are a Constitutional Monarchy, and she is the Queen's representative, who our Prime Minister is ultimately responsible to. She is black and she is a socialist.
We beat the Americans to the punch. :)
