The caption is taken from one of the articles run by Time magazine on the inauguration of Barack Hussein Obama, the U.S. of A's 44th President. The inauguration took place (January 20, 2009) a day after the annual celebration of Martin Luther King, the foremost champion of black human rights.
Obama, 47, placed his left hand on the vintage 1861 Bible of Abraham Lincoln to take the oath of office traditionally administered by the US Supreme Court chief on the steps of the US Capitol.
America is no longer color blind. Bloomberg run this story: "American democracy has always promoted a central conceit: Any child can grow up to be president. For 220 years, the reality has been different, a line of 42 white men. On Tuesday, that string was broken by a most unlikely individual, a black man born of an African father, with a slight political résumé who has described himself as a “skinny guy from the South Side of Chicago with a funny name.”
What's in a name? It may be a strange coincidence or just wishful thinking. The name Obama rhymes with America's "Enemy No. 1", Osama bin Laden. Not only that: Obama's middle name is Hussein, the family name of Iraq's executed leader Adam Hussein, the primary object of the US invasion of Iraq.
