Dating in Obama time

Dude here, has no expertise in this area. I therefore consume insights wherever I find 'em. Its the audacity of hope.

This first article, poses questions about expectations. Would many Type A personality women have dated Barack Obama, when he was a broke, big-eared organiser with a funny name? Is there an element of buying-stocks-when-the-markets-are-down in dating ? See: http://www.theroot.com/views/what-single-women-can-learn-michelle

The second piece, talks about lingering anxieties of race and interracial dating. Its an interesting perspective from a white woman who dated a black guy, in the run-up to the US election of 2008. See: http://thestimulist.com/resolved-interracial-dating-is-easier-than-you-think/.
