"Вот станет Барак Обама президентом США – и все будет хорошо". Гид на индонезийском острове Сумба   А ведь, возможно, я и сам встречал в те годы Барри Суторо - шестилетнего сына кенийца и... так это то, что столь близкой Азии пары кандидатов в президенты в США еще не было: один в ней рос, другой в ней сидел… Еще одно подтверждение, что ведущая роль Азии – это норма (см. здесь )?
