You Can Be Obama Too!

This story makes me smile.

It also makes me wonder about the global impact of Obama's candidacy.  I think in America we don't think enough about what this means for the world.

And not in that the-world-will-trust-America way. 

But:

How do Black folks in the diaspora outside of America feel when they see Barack? 

Do Black folks around the world walk a little taller?  Try a little harder?

Do little black boys around the world suddenly dream bigger? 

I bet they do.
