One thing he could do that would greatly impress me would be to tell the American people that it's time to let go of the hyphenated American terminology and just be Americans. I think that as long as we think of ourselves as African-Americans, Hispanic-Americans, Asian-Americans, or Whatever-Americans, that we foster divisions between us by emphasizing our differences instead of our commonalities. I'm of Canadian descent, but I don't think of myself as a Canadian-American. It's time for us all to put away these designations and just be Americans. Thanks.
