This would be a Twitter tweet if I could get it down to 140 characters. I failed. But I still think the entire concept is pretty interesting:

Last night, as the first African-American president was addressing a joint session of Congress, sitting behind him was the nation's first Catholic vice president and the first female speaker of the House.

The Republican response was given by the nation's first Indian-American governor.

Today, the first African-American president nominated as his commerce secretary the nation's first Chinese-American governor.

Just sayin'.
