And oh, my gosh, I can just imagine maybe that maybe within the first few years when it came out with the Obama era and and, you know, all of the the thoughts and emotion of are we in this post-racial era?
Right.
That was early on in the Obama era.
Right.
And then you see the Tea Party movement.
Right.
And so the honeymoon was over pretty quick.
In fact, I remember the day after Obama was elected.
And I'm kind of just, you know, on a cloud too, just thinking, wow, this is incredible.
By this point, I'm kind of pursuing my second career, which I'm now in, academia.
And I went back to school.
I was commuting from Chula Vista to UC San Diego and actually working out in the eastern part of the county too.
So in my commute, the day after Obama's election, I'm driving around and I see someone's car.
And it has a homemade sign, right?
Taken an eight and a half by 11 piece of paper and wrote in color, used Obama's name as an acronym.
And that acronym was One Big Ass Mistake America.
Right?
And when I saw that, and it's just, it's struck with me ever since because when I saw that, I thought, oh, wow, wow.
Maybe this isn't going to go how we think it's going to go.
