Oh, and what else do we have to show for as accomplishments in our society. Well, we have an African American President (woo-WHO!!!). We have a full-fledged popular environmental movement, fighting hard to preserve our planet (no, the war has not been won, but progress has been made). We had a successful civil rights movement.
