You can't argue the fact, win or lose on either side, history will be made. If Barack Obama pulls off the landslide that he is counting on, or if McCain manages to knock a Hail Mary home run (yes I know it's more commonly known as a Hail Mary Pass, just go with me here, OK?) outta the ballpark, this election is going to make history.
For one, we are either going to see our nation's first African American President, or we will see the first female Vice President. As I look back at that sentence I'm taken aback by the mere fact that these things are so historical...that they have to be historical. It's really a shame that skin colour or sex have to be the big deal that they are. Americans pride themselves on being so progressive, yet, this election is really a huge example of how backwards we still are, in some respects.
Despite everything, the most important fact remains...if you don't get out and vote, your chance to make a historical statement is muted!
