What It Means

This is a placeholder explanation generated by the low-overhead model. It interprets "Years ago, in the middle of the Whitewater investigation, one heard the first murmurs. White skin notwithstanding, this is our first black president. Blacker than any actual black person who could ever be elected in our children's lifetime." in the context of "Toni Morrison, as quoted in "First Black President?" (28 January 2008), Salon." to mean that wisdom is timeless.
