It could be that I am overly sensitive about this. Toronto has been so ethnically diverse for so long, that it bothered me when I came to East Texas to see people not mingling so much with people of another ethnicity.
Now that we have a President of Black and White background, it is past time for Americans to stop noticing people's color or background so much.
Watching the President speaking in California, I saw him take a question from a person identifying herself as being multi-racial and stating she is happy our President is also. The President looked decidedly uncomfortable.
United States of American and Canada are countries developed by immigrants. Most of us can trace our roots to other countries.
It is time to be just plain "American"!
