Black Historian Lerone Bennett wrote in his recent book:

No other American story is so enduring.

No other American story is so comforting.

No other American story is so false.

What Obama will be remains unknown.  He could be great or a disaster or could be remembered only as the first Black president.

I hope he will be a great president of all the people.
