Does Barack clear the way for Romany Gypsy and Irish Traveller?
Is there anyone the country wouldn't elect because of their cultural heritage if they seemed like they had a good head on their shoulders, their heart in the right place, and the patience yet toughness to administrate the U.S. government in a way Americans can be proud of?

Would preconceived notions about the community somebody sprung from ever be able to keep anybody back again?

1. It would be harder for bigots to make the case,
That's for sure.

4. Interesting question.
I suspect if Mario Cuomo's name didn't end in a vowel, he'd've been our nominee in '92.
