Hubby got up extra early so he could be at the polls when they opened this morning. When he returned before heading off to work, Princess daughter asked where he'd been. He told her he'd gone to vote for president of the United States, to which she asked "Did you vote for the man who likes chili or the man who likes tacos?"
Barely stifling his laughter, he said "The choices were John McCain, the man with white hair, and Barak Obama, the man with brown hair." "I know," she said, "Did you vote for the white-haired man who likes tacos or the brown-haired man who likes chili?" We later learned that this is the way her teacher explained the election process to the students - that both are good, but some people like chili and some people like tacos.
And now we're all going to find out how much we like chili.

Isn't that awesome. Of course, the whole point to me is: black v. white is as ridiculous as chili v. tacos. I love chili AND tacos. See my post: http://2enter1plus.blogspot.com/2008/11/dream-reified.html
If one likes chili AND tacos, does that make him an independent?
Co-dependent.
