Hard to put all his credentials in the headline.
But... raises the question - at what point will we be able to get past mentioning someone's ethnicity when describing them in a headline. Does BHO's election change that?
In other words, are we still going to see "Joe Blow, nominated to be the first Polish Supreme Court Justice..." or "Joanne Blow, the first woman to be CIA Director"?
Can we get past that?
It makes it seem like an impediment they overcame.
