Listen, The Straight Dope has some of the brightest minds out there. A lot of you think you’re ordinary, but you’re not. The people who have been running this world up until now are the ordinary ones, and their world view also happens to be based on lies. Whatever.
Obama is elected, history is made, America has another chance. And so do you.
If you’ve been waiting for your moment before you do something good in this world, now might be a good time. There is something to be said for momentum, and the pendulum is starting its swing in a new direction.
Go make this world a better place for everybody in whatever way you can.
Sure, but they better be the best damn nachos ever. None of that cheez whiz crap, mister! You get out the beans and steak and olives and jalapenos and sour cream and melt some real queso on those tortilla chips! Can we make a better nacho together? Yes, We CAN*! (Kill ourselves via cardiovascular disease, that is.)

Come to think of it, maybe Bob the Builder really is President.
