...experience of "humiliation and racism" is presumptuous and insulting. Andrew Young has obviously not read Obama's memoir, Dreams of My Father, which details Obama's lifelong struggle with identity, race and racism. It is true that Obama defies easy labeling, but to say he bears no scars is myopic. Obama overcame his adversity to rise above it and bring our nation with him. God bless him and his family.

At Thursday's close, for example, the 30-year T-bond was yielding 3.07%, implying investor expectations for stable prices for decades to come.
