Being a Canadian I don't much care who the next president is (usually) as long as it's not GWB. Thankfully this year will mark the end of his dismal career in the Whitehouse.
But this year I have been paying attention as a lot of Canadians are I think. That is because for the first time in history you have the opportunity to see a black man or a white woman in the oval office.
The only problem is that they are in the same party, however the fact that one of these 2 will become the leader of a major political party in the US and therefore have a really good shot at being the next president makes this an interesting story to follow.
Add into the mix the fact that I believe many Americans are tired of not only Bush politics but Bush's party altogether and the chance of a black or female president becomes that much greater.
So today is bigger than some people may realize because today's voting may decide who the next president of the US is.
