Barack Obama’s victory margin from November 4th now stands at 9,124,522 votes, and will probably grow a bit more once states like Illinois, New York and California finalize their counts.

    Great New York Times interview with Toni Morrison (6 minutes). Toni and Barack are mutual fans. And Toni deliberately set her newest novel in a period of American history (the 17th century) that she considers to be similar, polically and religiously, to today.http://video.nytimes.com/video/playlist/arts/1194811622313/index.html
